Celebrated character actor Claude Rains has a rare starring role in this unusual Noirish melodrama, set in Holland. He plays Kees Popinga, an unhappy, deferential clerk who finally snaps after his unscrupulous boss (Herbert Lom) plunders the company’s funds – and Popinga’s life-savings – to spoil his mistress (Marta Toren). Popinga has often watched trains passing by, heading for exotic places. So, leaving Lom floating in a canal, he hops on a train bound for Paris, with a suitcase of cash and a plan to track down Toren. On his trail is a Parisian inspector, played by Marius Goring with an engaging blend of warmth and panache.



From then on, nothing is quite what it seems, as Rains wanders unsuspectingly into a hellish, vividly-photographed netherworld of accented hoods, bombed-out cars and duplicitous females, the constant rat-a-tat of passing trains echoing in his ears.



This is a fine addition to the ‘50s crime canon: a parable about repression, greed and compromised dreams, with a devastatingly bitter streak. And Rains’ central performance recalls his explosive supporting turn in an earlier Noir classic – Where Danger Lives.



The film is also known as The Paris Express and was directed by Harold French. It's based on one of Simenon’s greatest romans durs. It’s an incredible novel and contains one of Simenon’s favorite themes--a bourgeois mild-mannered protagonist who through some fluke, some twist of fate, derails from his respectable life. Once cast adrift from respectability and the treadmill of duty, responsibility and employment, Simenon’s characters typically escape into an entirely new life, usually in the grimy underbelly of the crime world. For these characters, criminality becomes a liberating event as they shed old habits and routines.



Rains became the first actor to receive a million-dollar salary, 1945,when he portrayed Julius Caesar in Gabriel Pascal's high-budget version of Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra.He was also married six times.



Märta Torén died 1957 at the age of 31 from Leukemia.
