El éxito de 'La otra Madre' ('Visages d´enfants', 1923), dirigida por Jacques Feyder, motivó que le ofreciesen la adaptación al cine de la novela de tintes autobiográficos de Jules Renard 'Pelo de zanahoria' o 'Zanahorio', que también se tradujo así en España. Feyder escribió un guión que no se llegó a producir y otra empresa le propuso el reto a Julien Duvivier, quien desarrolló su propio guión. El film de Duvvivier, tan cruel y emotivo como el libro que narra la desgraciada infancia y adolescencia de un niño maltratado por su madre hasta el punto de tratar de suicidarse en dos ocasiones, no ha perdido ni su capacidad de emocionar ni su sorprendente tratamiento innovador.

Two of Germany's best and busiest directors collaborated on Berge in Flammen (Mountain in Flames). The storyline should be of interest to pro-ecologists, inasmuch as the directors take to task the warmongers of the world for despoiling the natural beauties of the European mountain ranges with their shell-fire. The final outrage occurs during a battle between the Austrians and the Italians in the Dolomites, culminating with the destruction of an entire mountain (hence the film's title). The harrowing images on screen were complemented perfectly by the musical score of Giuseppe Beece. Also known as The Doomed Batallion, Berge in Flammen was filmed in three different languages -- German, English, French -- for a total cost of $150,000.
