1958 ‘Les Tricheurs’ (‘The Cheats’)

The same set of youth is portrayed in Marcel Carné’s film Les Tricheurs (‘The Cheaters’) which had its premiere on the 10th October 1958 before gaining an award. The film chronicled the life of a group of well-heeled Parisians qui vivent entre rive gauche de Saint-Germain-des-Prés et rive droite du 16e arrondissement de Paris.
