Petty thief Pepel (Jean Gabin) breaks off his affair with the heartless Vassillissa (Suzy Prim) wife of the old miserly flop house owner Kostylev (Vladimir Sokoloff), and she warns him of the consequences. Famed French director Jean Renoir's 1936 classic adaptation of Maxim Gorky's Russian play, pitting harsh against convenient lies. Excellent use of deep background behind Gabin and Prim as they stand at an upstairs window discussing their relationship.
