Although better known for his escapist romances of the 1940s, Marcel Carné adapted Emile Zola's renowned novel for this naturalist film noir. Simone Signoret stars as the title character, a bored housewife who finds refuge from her marriage when she becomes passionately and tragically involved with an Italian truck driver. Pedro Almodóvar cited the film as one of many significant influences on his film, La Mala educación.
