Army of Shadows DVD

A gripping French wartime masterpiece exploring courage, loyalty and sacrifice within the Resistance during the Second World War.

From Dad's Collection

This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine love of world cinema, independent film and memorable performances. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each title now looking for a new home where it can continue to be appreciated.

Directed by Jean-Pierre Melville, Army of Shadows (L'Armée des Ombres) follows members of the French Resistance as they carry out dangerous missions under constant threat of capture.

Inspired by Joseph Kessel's novel and Melville's own wartime experiences, the film offers an uncompromising portrait of courage, loyalty and impossible moral choices, with memorable performances from Lino Ventura and Simone Signoret.

An essential choice for collectors of Jean-Pierre Melville films, French cinema, BFI releases and powerful Second World War drama.
