Hypnotizing from beginning to end. Probably the most dreamlike Carne's film.

Great ending. Amazing, in fact! But for the longest time it was talking itself to a halt. I can only imagine how much more fulfilling it would have been had the original couple of Jean Gabin & Marlene Dietrich starred in this. Their depth and more dynamic personalities would have made this work on a much higher level than the newcomers Yves Montand & Nathalie Nattier ever mastered here.
