The french naturalism of the hand of Jacques Becker, 26 April 2009
9/10
Author: psagray from Spain

Passes the year of 1900 when it happens the film, Marie (Simone Sginoret), is a beautiful blond prostitute of Paris lover of a component of a gang of thugs. Problems arise when Marie, (Simone Signoret) falls in love with a carpenter "Manda" very friend of one of the components of the gang"Raymond". The story is based on real facts, and reflects the inevitability of naturalism french. The conviction that makes the poor and humble characters players in this film, which does not give option and from the outset is smells the tragic end. The planes are carried out on the face of the protagonist Simone Signoret, are splendid, a great beauty. The scenarios of the film are very good of a huge realism, that remind us of the authentic photographs of those years, as the wedding who see the two players, dances and the gesture of all the characters. Its director Jacques Becker achieves a masterpiece in this movie.
