Film Synopsis
In a Parisian café, a party of American politicans discuss the
threat posed by marauding Indians. To put a definitive end to
this red peril they summon General Custer, who promptly arrives at the
Gare du Nord in his Civil War uniform. The appearance of this
showy military man may please his female admirers but it does little
for General Grant, his sworn rival...
In the 1940s, the shadowy, skewed visual style of 1920s German expressionism was taken up by directors of American thrillers and psychological dramas, creating that distinctive film noir look.
