Description
 
This is a region-free DVD-R without case or artwork.

In French with English subtitles. Also known as The Cheat.

Directed by Yves Allegret. As his wife Dora (Simone Signoret) lies close to death in a hospital bed after a horrific car accident, Robert (Bernard Blier) looks back with guilt and tenderness on their brief life together. The devoted husband, he can think only of the happier times, convinced that theirs was a perfect marriage. This illusion is shattered when Dora's embittered mother tells Robert the truth about his wife: Dora only married Robert for his money and has been bleeding him dry, to the point where he ends up having to sell his business, a riding school. But there is worse: without him knowing, Dora has taken a secret lover while ruthlessly plotting her next move up the social ladder...

5 of 5 Maneges September 3, 2018
Reviewer: Doss, Ken from Fayetteville, AR United States  
Thank you for the excellent  transaction. Very quick delivery on a great French noir, nice clear picture quality on an obscure film that was very hard to come by.

4 of 5 Another winner. February 10, 2018
Reviewer: Hildegard Brosseau from Stratford, CT United States  
Signoret at her devilish best, again partnered by the excellent Bernard Blier and Jane Marken as the "mother from hell", including that insane laugh. A film not easy to forget, even if you want to.
I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it really IS depressing, which a good noir should be, I suppose. And this one is a doozey.
