Therese Raquin

Beschrijving
Marcel Carne's (LES ENFANTS DU PARADIS) adaptation of Emile Zola's classic brought Simone Signoret (ROOM AT THE TOP, LES DIABOLIQUES) out of retirement to play the part of Therese. Ill-fated but passionate, Therese and her lover Laurent (Raf Vallone) plot the demise of her husband, who meets his end when he "accidentally" falls from a train. But the couple, now free to be together, are tormented by a mysterious blackmailer, as well as the silent accusation of the dead man's mother. A haunting tale, Carne's last great work is a masterful film noir, which stays true to Zola's ultimately pessimistic view of human nature and the possibility of redemption.
