(NOIR) Le Corbeau (The Raven) - 1943 ***



A completely unheard of French noir which is always a plus for me as I love noir with a passion. The story follows a French Doctor who starts to receive poison pen letters from a mysterious person accusing him of performing illegal abortions and having an affair with his patient. One by one the other members of the story begin to also receive letters and must work quickly to decifer the true culprit. It's not a bad film, and some parts are really eerie, especially the very last scene, and I never guessed who it was. I guarantee that anyone watching will guess the same person that I originally did.
