Portrait of a two-faced man. By day he is rich, brilliant and respectable financial officer Lussac; at night, he becomes "Mirror", a ruthless gang leader in Marseilles.
Acting
Gabin's physical shift between Lussac and Mirror is masterclass.
Direction
Lamy's shadow work splits the frame like split personalities.
