Pepe is a jerk, he values women over brothers, and his professional skills are not that good. I don't understand why neighbors like him and respect him so...

It's funny, it's extremely romantic, but it also hurts. The script is great. It creates a labyrinth-like "world" at the beginning. It's not a group play, but most of the supporting characters have distinct personalities and emotions. The development of contradictions is reasonable and reasonable, allowing Gabon's excellent performance and screen charm to endow "Babe" The multiple facets and uncertainties of the character make people both love and hate. Although the ending tragedy has been...

Poetic realism, the most poetic place lies in the intertwined Middle Eastern style urban area, and various characters living in it. Although it is a film completed in 36 years, it is more mature and sophisticated, and it is cool to add some special set methods to sports shots. The male protagonist is actually quite scumbag and not attractive...

"He's just a child" has always been on Beibei's lips, but Beibei is the most sincere child. The woman covered in jewels is the New York in the Paris song in the dream, and the huge gravitational force makes Bei Bei sink deep. Kasbah's impregnable walls could not stop his companion's turmoil of death and desire. He was no longer sophisticated and rational, and he began to roar and sing. He escaped from the old safe city and rushed to the future cruise ship, but he couldn't escape the iron fence...

3.5 The police and gangster films of the 1930s, the exotic style and the unique setting house shape give the film a different kind of quality, so that the character of Gabon is also successfully created. Overall, the plot is not compact and coherent, and many supporting characters are not brilliant. It is a bit...

The ending is good, or the overlapping or defocused shots highlight the characters' hearts, and also reflect the dream that Bei Bei pursues - whether it is life or love, it can never be reached. The most tragic role should actually be the gypsy girl Ina. The director made her lose her love and act as a sinner, which is too...

In the 1930s, Jean Gabon was flesh and blood, much better than the Hollywood male stars of the same period. Here, we can not only feel the inheritance of "Casablanca", but also think of the similarities between Humphrey Bogart and Bebe. The iron railings in the foreground at the end of the film and the sailing ship slowly receding, this rich poetic realism, and the past life of film noir. The scenes and music are amazingly used, especially the cheerful and lively background music is revenge...
Pépé le Moko Comments

Janvier: Pépé le Moko is still at large.
Meunier: Algiers isn't Pigalle.
Janvier: In Pigalle, he'd have been behind bars long ago.

Meunier: The Casbah is like a labyrinth. I'll show you. You can say Pépé's gone underground. From the air, the district known as the Casbah looks like a teeming anthill, a vast staircase where terraces descend stepwise to the sea. Between these steps are dark, winding streets like so many pitfalls. They intersect, overlap, twist in and out, to form a jumble of mazes. Some are narrow, others vaulted. Wherever you look, stairways climb steeply like ladders, or descend into dark, putrid chasms and slimy porticos, dank and lice-infested. Dark, overcrowded cafés. Silent, empty streets with odd names. A population of 40,000 in an area meant for 10,000. From all over the world. Many, descended from the barbarians, are honest traditionalists, but a mystery to us. Kabyles. Chinese. Gypsies. Stateless. Slavs. Maltese. Negroes. Sicilians. Spaniards. And girls of all nations, shapes and sizes. The tall. The fat. The short. The ageless. The shapeless. Chasms of fat no one would dare approach. The houses have inner courtyards, which are like ceilingless cells that echo like wells and interconnect by means of terraces above. They're the exclusive domain of native women. But Europeans are tolerated. They form a city apart, which, step by step, stretches down to the sea. Colorful, dynamic, multifaceted, boisterous, there's not one Casbah, but hundreds. Thousands. And this teeming maze is what Pépé calls home.
