You Belong to Me

1929 · 106 min

A restless silent chase that rarely lets up, driven by cutting rhythm and mounting dread rather than dialogue.

Starring
Camille Bert, Suzy Vernon, Victor Vina
Overview
The frenetic pace of the edit was intended to match the action, based on Article 635 of the French criminal code stipulating that after 20 years on the run, a penal colony escapee can regain his freedom if he evades capture by the police.
