Review of Pépé le Moko (1937) by Adrian B — 09 Jan 2012
The title character of this movie is a gangster (Jean Gabin) who is in hiding in national capital of Algeria, in which he is trying all his best to escape the police. However, a new problem arises when he falls in love with a city girl (Marielle Balin), and begins to spend a lot of time with her.
She has not a clue what the background of her Pepe is. Pretty good stuff helps film move a relatively brisk pace. A bit confusing at times and perhaps a little dated, but it is still good watch.
