These are two short stories of MAUPASSANT transferred to the screen but this is not the usual film made up of sketches .The two stories "Boule de Suif " and "Mademoiselle Fifi" are blended with skill:as Boule de Suif was coveted by a Prussian officer,it was easy to introduce the hero of another short story ,a sadistic soldier nicknamed "mademoiselle Fifi".THe smug mean bourgeois of Maupassant are present and Micheline Presles is a memorable heroine.This is one of Christian-Jaque 's best films and it should be more known.
NB:Maupassant's short story also inspired Dudley Nichols for "Stagecoach" (1939) whose main character played by Claire Trevor is some kind of "Boule de Suif".
