this is renoir's slightly more humanist take on the same material fritz lang used for 'scarlet street'. he wasn't hampered by the production code so the mistress here is an actual streetwalker in love with her pimp who treats her miserably. michel simon is top notch in the role later played by edward g robinson and i can't pick my favorite between these two. an interesting sidenote: michel simon falls for janie marèse, as he did in real life, while marèse fell for georges flamant, a professional criminal and amateur actor, who plays the pimp. renoir and the producers had encouraged their relationship for the sake of their performances. after the film's completion, flamant took marèse for a drive, crashing the car and killing her. simon fainted at the funeral and blamed renoir for her death, threatening to shoot him. "kill me if you like", responded renoir, "but I have made the film"

The title means "The Bitch". A timid to a fault bank cashier with a shrill, tyrannical wife falls in love with a prostitute who in turn is conning him for her pimp, whom SHE is in love with. French actor Michel Simon is terrific as the cashier. Even though the film essentially focuses on three rather unlikeable characters, it still manages to keep them human and interesting and the story quite compelling: Sad, tragic, frustrating and even a darkly humorous. It's not my favorite Renoir but it's a solid film.

Jean Renoir's first sound feature (1931) and one of his best.

Renoir... que polÃªmico! (proibido de passar nos EUA por quase 50 anos!) :-O

another classic jean renoir film of shifting morality and deceptively slow pacing. the film opens on a puppet show stage, narrated by a puppet who informs us that the story we're about to see has no heroes or villains, merely a man, a woman, and the 'other man.' all three characters are both heroic and despicable in their own right, depending on your perspective of the story - which revolves around the idea of stealing credit for another man's 'work,' be it crime or art. the title means 'the bitch,' and janie marÃ¨se seems to have fantastic fun in bringing the title character to life. as with all the renoir films i've seen, ('the rules of the game,' 'the crime of monsieur lange,' and 'la grande illusion,' their influence on woody allen is obvious.
