Después de ser abandonado por su mujer, un actor fracasado conoce en Nueva York a una ex condesa, y entre ambos surge una relación sentimental.

Bringing a French melancholy to the streets of 1960s New York, Marcel Carné’s passionate adaptation of Georges Simenon’s novel is a jazz-infused dance between reality and fantasy. As the tempestuous lovers roam from motel rooms to seedy bars, you might just spot Robert De Niro in his screen debut.
