Recommended.Scroll down using the grey bar to the right Georges Riviere plays a character that I remembered as quite unsympathetic, but interestingly I now see as much more complex and in his own way, principled. Charles Aznavour is excellent as the believable everyman, and the rest of the cast are fine. I now find it a very thoughtful anti-war film, which acknowledges the widespread collaboration with the Nazis, which, together with the ending, must have been shocking to French opinion at the time. I have been looking for it on DVD for a long time and bought it as soon as I saw it on a French website. I saw this when it came out in the 60s and it has stayed with me ever since. Nonetheless I enjoyed this very much and although I missed some of the dialogue it was always clear what was happening. I generally try to get French DVDs with subtitles in French (for the hard of hearing) as that helps if they speak too fast for me or have difficult accents. The only problem is that there are no subtitles. This title is now available on DVD in France (StudioCanal).
