Watched LA BANDERA (1935). Not sure why this isn't as well-known and regarded as Pépé Le Moko. Made two years earlier, directed by Julien Duvivier and starring Jean Gabin. Gabin murders a man then joins the Foreign Legion in Spain to escape but, he's doomed. Loved Annabella. Loved the movie.

My burgeoning film critics, entertainment journos and authors, lend me your ears! I regularly write about the institutional knowledge that's disappearing in the journalism world and want to inspire the next generation. So I'm opening myself up to career coaching and consulting. DM for rates!
