Trivia
This film was shot while the Nazis were occupying France. Its director faced a number of difficulties in making it. It premiered on December 4, 1942. It was one of the biggest film events during the war. It was called "the grandest film of the Occupation." One of the reasons that the film was such a huge success was the rumor that the film was an allegory. Many people saw the character of the Devil as representing Hitler and the continued beating hearts of the lovers as representing France living under German rule. Until his death in 1996 the director, Marcel Carné, denied any intended hidden messages.

Citas
Dominique - un ménestrel: Men have loved me, as they like to whisper in my ear. I let them. Is it my fault if they wept, gave everything for me, even their lives? The young men were passionate; the old men crawled at my feet.
Gilles - un ménestrel: When did I ever cry or throw myself at your feet?
Dominique - un ménestrel: [snorts] You're different - greedy, stubborn, proud. You just want to be loved, to take without giving, to keep it all and leave.
Gilles - un ménestrel: Like you!
Dominique - un ménestrel: You hunted me like a cat hunts a mouse - but we're both cats, there is no mouse. It's not our fault. We both thought we'd caught a tender new victim... two executioners, face to face and no one to torture. How sad.

Créditos curiosos
The opening credits are shown as pages of an illuminated book with a gloved hand turning each page over.

6.9/10. Recommended

This is an 82 years old/2 hours movie. One might expect it drags at some point, but no, pace is excellent, i never lost my interest, there is always something going on. Of course, it helps if you know what this is about. This is a drama/fantasy/romance, like a fairy tale for adults. Any romantic soul will appreciate it. It's not a masterpiece, it's not among the best movies of Carne/Prevert, actually i prefer the other collaborations of them. Still, it's enjoyable, legendary Arletty gives another great acting performance, other actors as well and if you love this genre, you are gonna like it at least, it's possible that you might even love it.
