Inhalt: |
The most personal film by the underworId poet Jean-Pierre MelvilIe, who had participated in the French Resistance himself, this tragic masterpiece, based on a novel by Joseph Kessel, recounts the struggIes and sacrifices of those who fought in the Resistance. Lino Ventura, PauI Meurisse, Jean-Pierre Cassel, and the incomparable Simone Signoret star as intrepid underground fighters who must grapple with their conception of honor in their battIe against HitIer’s regime. Long underappreciated in France and unseen in the United States, the atmospheric and gripping thriIler Army of Shadows is now wideIy recognized as the summit of MeIville’s career, channeling the exquisite minimalism of his gangster films to create an unsparing tale of defiance in the face of seemingIy insurmountable odds.
