Synopsis – What to Expect from “Monsieur Verdoux”
Monsieur Verdoux is a black comedy film released in 1947. The movie tells the story of Henri Verdoux, a French banker who is laid off from his job due to the Great Depression. In order to support his family, Verdoux begins to marry wealthy widows and then murder them for their money.
Verdoux is able to pull off his scheme for some time, but eventually his luck runs out and he is arrested and put on trial for his crimes. The movie follows Verdoux as he defends himself in court, arguing that his actions were simply a form of economic necessity.
The movie is a dark comedy that explores the moral implications of Verdoux’s actions. It also serves as a commentary on the morality of modern society and its willingness to overlook the suffering of the poor.
The movie is ultimately a tragedy, as Verdoux is found guilty and sentenced to death. However, before his execution, he makes a powerful statement about the unfairness of his situation, and the film ends on a note of hope.
