One of the all-time comedy classics, Rene Clair's A Nous la Liberte tells the story of Emile, an escaped convict who becomes a wealthy industrialist. Unfortunately, his past returns (in the form of an old jail pal Louis) to upset his carefully laid plans. Featuring lighthearted wit, tremendous visual innovation, and masterful manipulation of sound, A Nous la Liberte is both a potent indictment of mechanized modern society and an uprorious comic delight.
