| DVD

Jacques Becker lovingly evokes the Belle poque Parisian demimonde in this classic tale of doomed romance. When gangster's moll Marie (Simone Signoret) falls for reformed criminal Manda (Serge Reggiani) their passion incites an underworld rivalry that leads inexorably to treachery and tragedy. With poignant nuanced performances and sensuous black-and-white photography Casque d'or is Becker at the height of his cinematic powers - an achingly romantic masterpiece.
