Les Corrupteurs was the leading French film of anti-Semitic propaganda made during the German occupation of France. Conceived of as an educational film, Les Corrupteurs is a drama movie with archive images. In cartoonish form, the film expresses a truly shameful justification of anti-Semitic laws, arrests and imprisonment with repugnant commentary. Despite its mediocre directing by a jack-of-all-trades of French film, Les Corrupteurs is important testimony of anti-Semitic propaganda under the Vichyregime. This medium length film was shown before Henri Decoin’s Les Inconnus dans la maison, an adaptation of Simenon’s novel; the film, unlike the original work, hides the murderer’s ethnic origins. The events or situations connected to the Vichy period are overpowered by the dramatic story of the famous novel. The film is also a psychological study of a former lawyer, played by Raimu who gives a masterful performance in the final trial scene.
