Year: 1952
Runtime: 117 mins
Language: French
Director: André Cayatte
Directed by former lawyer André Cayatte, the film follows four condemned men, all hardened murderers. Charles Spaak’s screenplay condemns the guillotine ritual that never warns prisoners, seizing them abruptly and denying chance for reconciliation. The harrowing portrayal leaves viewers feeling as dehumanized as the protagonists. Though denounced by authorities, it won a Cannes special jury prize in 1952.
