Boudu Saved from Drowning
Boudu sauvé des eaux | Michel Simon
A tramp, heartbroken by the loss of his dog, throws himself into the river and is rescued by a bourgeois family. A bittersweet criticism of the right-thinking mores of the time, Renoir’s mocking adaptation of René Fauchois sees Michel Simon at the peak of his anarchic powers.
