Film Description

A collection of three films from the French master filmmaker. Features his wartime poison-pen drama Le Corbeau (1943), reviled by the right-wing, left-wing and church alike, his classic Gallic film noir Quai des Orfevres (1947) and The Wages of Fear (1952), set in a seedy Latin American outpost, populated by ex-pat oil workers and tanker drivers and where anything goes. Karel Reisz memorably described the film as 'unselectively and impartially anti-everything'!

Review by Barry Forshaw on 23rd May 2007

The recent issue of the British Hell Drivers reminded admirers of a classic film by Henri-Georges Clouzot …and speaking of The Wages of Fear, here’s a chance to remind yourself of just how impressive the original inspiration for Cy End field’s film was, looking better than ever in this splendid transfer. But that’s not the only treasure on the set – the rarely seen poison pen crime drama Le Corbeau/The Raven is here, along with other classics from a director whose reputation seems to be growing stronger than ever, after its temporary eclipse in the days of the French Nouvelle Vague.
