Loosely-based upon a scandalous affair during the Belle Époque-era in turn-of-the-century France, this is the tale of Marie - the Casque D'Or of the title - who is a beautiful blonde-haired woman beloved by an array of gangsters and criminals from the underworld of the time. It is a story of male jealousy and how this imperils the lives of so many if it is allowed to fester.
Famous for its incredible closing sequence which was beloved by many of the filmmakers of the French New Wave era that was soon to emerge, it features a career-defining central performance from a young Simone Signoret. This year marks the film's 70th anniversary.
