９０年にほぼ原型に近い形に修復された版（従って本篇の前に、そのいきさつの解説が若干つく）の公開によって、日本でもようやく一般に見られるようになったＪ・ヴィゴの傑作である。アタラント号とは、ル・アヴールとその上流の田舎町を往復している艀。その若き船長の新妻が都会の誘惑にかられ、パリに近づいた折りにこっそり抜け出すが、怒った夫は彼女を置いて出航する。しかし、愛妻なしの彼はまるで腑抜けで、急に川に飛び込み、彼女の幻影を見たりしている。一方、妻はひったくりにあい、帰るに帰れず、同船している老水夫ジュール親爺（Ｍ・シモン）により、ようやく探し出される。話は俗なものだが、詩的で自由奔放な表現、キャラクターが際立つ肉体性の把握、溢れるユーモア……映画の官能が蒸気となって観客を包み込んでしまう、これは聖なる映画と言えるかも知れない。何度観てもはぐらかされ、不安なときめきを覚える。幼い子供と遊ぶのに似た、つき詰めようのない快楽を帯びた映画。Ｍ・シモンの醜い外見に惑わされてはいけない。彼こそが天使だ。

The French and the English spy on each other, in this adventure set in post World War I colonial Syria.

Ivan Mozzhukhin is a "...hot-headed Caucasian mountaineer leader whose irrational behavior comes to the attention of the Czar . Hoping to use Hajji Murad as a go-between in his plans to conquer the Caucasus mountaineers, the Russian ruler finds that the hero is not so easily manipulated. Rescuing the beautiful Saira from the Czar's clutches, Hajji Murad leads the mountain people's revolt against the despotic regent." Needless to say, the film ends in tragedy.

A biopic of Napoleon Bonaparte, tracing the Corsican's career from his schooldays (where a snowball fight is staged like a military campaign) to his flight from Corsica, through the French Revolution (where a real storm is intercut with a political storm) and the Terror, culminating in his triumphant invasion of Italy in 1797. Originally intended to be the first of six films, director Abel Gance realized the full project would be nigh impossible, and never raised the money to complete the other five. The film's legendary reputation is due to the astonishing range of techniques that Gance uses to tell his story, culminating in the final twenty-minute triptych sequence, which alternates widescreen panoramas with complex multiple- image montages projected simultaneously on three screens.

The almost financial ruined gentleman Georges Dewalter spends several days in Biarritz before going off in the Hispano-Suiza, a luxe car which was a present from friends.
