Gaspard de Bresse, the crook with the golden heart or rather the man who stood up for the common people and gave them back as much as possible that he could get from the rich and unlawful and corrupt government agencies.
A grumbling jan-in-the-cap and an uncorrect society is of all times. As a film, however, this "Gaspard de Bresse" has remained on the spot and certainly comes across as corny with action scenes that do not exactly testify to professional shooting technique.
It is also remarkable that "the" figure of the film is not Gaspard (Antonin Berval - was in "Le Boulanger de Vallorgue", I seem to remember) but actor Raimu who comes across as very convincing and enjoyable with folk wisdom and funny and witty statements . Fortunately, because this "Gaspard de Bresse" is not a great film.
