If you loved Die Hündin, try Das Verbrechen des Herrn Lange
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Jean Renoir, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Die Hündin, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Das Verbrechen des Herrn Lange is
Renoir does not appear to have set out to make a crime film, but here we are. The workers at a publishing house form a cooperative when their horrible boss skips town. Unfortunately, the man returns, looking for his cut. It did at least give us a glimpse of pre-war France.
