The Rules of the Game. (The Criterion Collection, 1939)
Widely regarded as one of the greatest films every made, is a scathing critique of corrup French society cloaked in a comedy of manners. Amorous intrigue abounds at a weekend hunting party where the refusal of one of the guests to play by the class-based rules sets off a chain of events that ends in tragedy.
