Review of La Bête Humaine (1938) by Kimball T — 22 Jun 2014
Banned in Australia by the Commonwealth Censor in 1938. I assume it is still banned in 2014, because I am unable to buy a copy of this dark movie, even if I try to order it from outside Australia. I have watched it from start to finish, because I am fascinated by railways, and the relevant scenes are evocative, true to life, and historic.
The story line is deeply disturbing, but nonetheless no worse than Love the Proper Stranger or Oklahoma.
