Film Synopsis

Ariane is an international adventuress who has grown tired of her old life and longs for a more peaceful existence, in the company of her one true soul mate.  She has her opportunity to change her ways when, by chance, she meets a young painter with whom she has a brief but idyllic love affair.  With the police on her heels, Ariane is glad of the temporary refuge of the sanatorium where the painter is being treated.  Finally, she decides she must give herself up to the authorities, confident that once she has served her time in prison her lover will still be waiting for her, willing to resume their erstwhile romance...

The best of American cinema
sb-img-26
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
