JERICHO
HENRI CALEF

FRANCE 1945
Lang.: FRENCH; Length: 95 MIN

. Once the French film industry was able to make WWII epics, it did so with
a vengeance. Jericho is the true story of the bombing of the Nazi-held prison
at Amiens. It is argued that, while the RAF took an enormous public-relations
risk in the bombing, the end result was largely salutary, resulting in freedom
for 50 French hostages. The dramatic portions of the film share space with
newsreel footage of the actual attack. One of the better films of its kind,
Jericho failed to make a dent in the U.S. market, which at the time was
inundated with war pictures.
