Jenny Lamour (1947)
9/10
The most French movie for all French movies!!!
27 March 2019
My statement about this picture as the most French movie means over so many elements that applying on French cinema itself, there are a Burlesque night club as Paris's trademark, lively nightlife, many girls making everything to get success on show business, jealous husband in French way, a proud policeman inspector who works following the rules, which has a bitter life and even such conditions still walking in the line, also had some snide inquiries, too intense activities on police precinct, a old man buying nudes photos instead to buy famous paintings, cars thieves, anyway all sort of odd characters gathered just in one place, all good people and scum of the society are there, in the middle a frustrated inspector handling all those puzzle without losing his composure, with no family, just an adopted boy, anyway the whole French country were displayed here compressed in this picture, a near masterpiece by Clouzot!!!
