NOUS LES GOSSES
Louis Daquin (1941)
NOUS LES GOSSES
Louis Daquin(1941)
Daquin's burgeoning film directing career was almost throttled at birth by the outbreak of WWII and during the Occupation he directed most of his energies to supporting the Communist branch of the French Resistance. Being an active filmmaker was a convenient cover for Daquin's clandestine activities and he continued making commercial films, the best known being his eerily atmospheric adaptation of a Georges Simenon novel, Le Voyageur de la Toussaint (1943). Immediately before this, Daquin directed one of his most inspired and humane films, Nous les Gosses, a film that appears completely out of its time and is unlike any other made in France during the darks days of the German Occupation.
