Summary

French Month continues with a look at Marcel Carne’s Children of Paradise. Released in 1945 and set in the early-mid 1800s, the film tells a winding tale of the woman Garance (Arletty) and the four men in her orbit: The mime Baptiste, the actor Frederick, the criminal Larcenaire, and the aristocrat Edouard.

Keith Gordon and Samm Deighan join Mike to discuss the film as well as the compelling circumstances around its making.
