starring
Raymond Cordy , Henri Marchand Rene Clair was one of the outstanding figures of the cinema. Richly inventive and with a genius for comedy, he was the first director to make talking pictures an art form. A nous la liberty, made in 1931, for all its slapstick and burlesque, presents a chilling picture of man reduced to an automaton by the products of his own invention. A major influence on Chaplin's Modern Times, it is still relevant after 50 years.
