just love Claudine Dupuis

I discovered the exciting Claudine Dupuis in "La Môme Pigalle" in which she is so terrific, directed by her husband Alfred Rode who never signed any masterpiece, just popular movies fun to watch.

In "Visa Pour l'Enfer", again directed by her husband, she is still exciting as it is shot around Marseilles in the summer. From the very beginning, we see her singing and dancing a very sensual song, "le Diable Au Corps", a must see and listen. Bad news, the record doesn't exist, it would be a good idea to release it.

This thriller is not so action-packed, but Pierre Dudan has some great moments as a psychotic killer.

I just can't wait, I strongly desire to see another movie with Claudine Dupuis, it will be "C'est la Vie Parisienne". Directed again by Alfred Rode. I think she sings and dances again.

Not bad but nothing else

A rare and curious film. It seems like a crime movie, but it remains more a common drama than anything else. The lead character who escapes from prison at the beginning meets a curious fate here. He somehow becomes the bad guy of the movie towards the end, and Jean Gaven, who only arrives in the middle of the feature, becomes the real hero. Yes, an unusual scheme, and only that saves the film for me. A good atmosphere from South of France in the late fifties. It was a good thing that this vault gem was presented by DVD distributors.

The whole action takes place around Marseilles.

I don't know the director, Alfred Rode. Never heard of him.
