You nailed it John! The perfect film "for a rainy night filled with lost dreams". Thanks Sam and for highlighting Jaubert’s score.

You nailed it John! The perfect film “for a rainy night filled with lost dreams”.

The atmosphere described make this sound like a perfect film for a rainy night filled with lost dreams.

Certainly, LE QUAI DES BRUMES is one of the gloomiest and most depressing films in all of cinema, and like the other Carne-Prevert collaboration, LE JOUR SE LEVE, it's an existential work (though LE QUAI is the more philosophical of the two, methinks) This is a moody, atmospheric film (the score by Maurice Jaubert is memorable too) that is magnificently visualized here in verbal terms. Bravo. Yet another poetic treatment that captures the essence of a work perfectly.

Le quai des brumes (Port of Shadows)
What can I say, but what a very…descriptive review of a film about two people who are in love and their relationship is doomed from the start or from the beginning.

Another film that is “elusive” to me too…Therefore, I must seek this film out to watch in earnest.(Along with In the Valley of Elah

By the way, writer R.L.Bourges, pointed this film out to me to (over there on YouTube) Therefore, if I do not purchase it…I can always watch it on over there on YouTube in it entirety.

Nice poster!…This is the second of five French posters that I have seen for the 1938 film Le quai des brumes.
Merci de partager!
