    Thanks, Jon, I much enjoyed this film.
    Any chance of uploading the version done 4 years later by Fritz Lang– his “Liliom” (1934; 1h 25m; b&w), was Lang’s sole French film after fleeing Nazi Germany before heading to Hollywood.
    Starring in the lead is none other than Charles Boyer (his rogue charm & looks would seem perfectly suited for this role).
