CORBEAU, LE - FRENCH FILM GUIDE'Le Corbeau', directed by Clouzot, tells the story of a small town inundated by letters from an anonymous sender operating under the curious name of 'Le Corbeau' - the raven. A film about the German occupation of France, Judith Mayne's book analyzes the film's visual style and dark tone, and provides a guide to its many possible interpretations (in line with the period's "cinema of paradox"). |
