Impasse Aux Violences, L'

Edimbourg 1820. Le docteur Knox scandalise ses confreres plus timores en encourageant ouvertement l'activite des voleurs de cadavres. Deux sinistres fripouilles decident de gagner les faveur du docteur sans se donner la peine de voler les cadavres. Elles les fabriquent en frequentant les ruelles les plus mal famees d'Edimbourg. Un film de maitre tire d'un fait divers authentique qui donna naissance a "Body Snatchers" de Stevenson. Cette histoire inspira de nombreux cineastes et Gilling signait des 1946 le scenario de "Greed of William Hart" narrant la meme histoire.
