BECKER

We took a short vacation from the Best Films series today. I am watching two films by Jacques Becker.

Today's movie was Casque d'Or with Simone Signoret.

It is considered one of Becker's best films. Set in the 19th Century, a gang's moll falls for a reforming ex-con. Gang and gang leader don't take to it very well.

It is nicely done with great photography and acting.

It got an 8.0 on the IMDb rating. I will give it a 4 out of Netflix5.
