Review of Hôtel du Nord (1938) by Jean-Marie L — 30 Mar 2016

I was in wonder watching this film. I adore the poetic realism movement and Carne' has directed some of my favourite features. Here Arletty and Jouvet shine in their roles, which are brought to life also thanks to a script which seemed to exude wit and romanticism.

I loved the star-crossed love story and was very impressed with the set recreation of this spot of Paris. This film had ATMOSPHERE, ATMOSPHERE! :).
