Set to arrive on April 24th in the United Kingdom, courtesy of Soda Pictures, Marcel Carne's Hotel du Nord tells the story of a young couple as they rent a hotel room near Saint-Martin where they will commit suicide.




French distribs MK2 released the film back in 2002 as part of their classic line but unfortunately their presentation did not offer English subtitles. I am hopefull that this will be the same transfer.

Also, for what its worth I actually like the British cover much better (sans those tiny obnoxious logos at the bottom)

Many thanks for the heads-up, Pro-B. I've been wanting to see this movie for quite some time, but English subs are a necessity for me when it comes to French cinema.

I wonder how they will translate the scene when Arletty answer to Jouvet:
«Atmosphère, atmosphère, est-ce que j'ai une gueule d'atmosphère ? »
The scene in mp3 here (the famous line is around 01:00 mn)
