Commentaire par elo-equipamentos

Just few movies allow me say that Julien Duvivier is already enough to put this French director in a high pedestal, what a movie!!! A lonely mid age man quiet (Michael Simon) monsieur Hire was strongly stigmatized by his neighbors for his odd behavior, reserved, a true smooth guy who hide a bitter past, caught in a sudden love with a newcomer beauty girl Alice (Viviane Romance), she fits perfect to him, meanwhile she very youngest and already has an bedfellow, the swindler Alfred Chartier (Paul Bernard), she was arrested for him almost a year, now together she discovers that he killed an old woman to steal his money, worst Hire knows everything, Alice and Alfred use a unusual wisdom to set up to Mr. Hire, scattering gossips thru the distrustful neighbors, becomes in a true hysteria, fabulous well-crafted concept to expose the real human nature and a strong social criticism, a near masterpiece from this outstanding Julien Duvivier!!!
