Epic melodrama, and my favorite of the poetic realist movement. Arletty plays the enigmatic and unattainable Garance, around which the lives and misfortunes of four men revolve, and all the relationships orbit around the theater on the "Boulevard du Crime." It's dramatic, poetic stuff, in the most French way possible--the kind of thing that doesn't always appeal to me, but it all works here. I love the wordplay, the emotions, the yearning, and the tragedy of it all. To think that it was all made in the midst of war and occupation is truly mind-boggling.
