This is a region-free DVD-R without case or artwork.

In French with English subtitles.

Crossroads is the English title for Carrefour, directed in France by German-born Kurt (later Curtis) Bernhardt. Suzy Prin and Jules Berry star in this master blend of amnesia, romance and deceit. A respected French diplomat is blackmailed by criminals, who insist that the diplomat, who'd once suffered a loss of memory, had been a crook in his previous "life". When Kurt Bernhardt emigrated to the US, he was signed by Warner Bros., thus had no opportunity to work on MGM's remake of Carrefour (again titled Crossroads) starring William Powell, Hedy Lamarr and Basil Rathbone.

3 of 5 #2 film On the Loose 5 stars June 6, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Fleetwood, PA United States  
A nicely done film from a director who changed his name going from country to country.He did make 3 very good American films:Conflict,The High Wall,and Possessed.Unfortunately this film,character wise,is motivationally flawed for just about every character in the film,making a very well directed and produced film rather unbelievable.There is another typically puerile MGM version of this same plot starring Willian Powell.There are two other entertaining American films with generally similar plots:The Man Who Lived Twice starring Ralph Bellamy,1936 and Crime Doctor starring Warner Baxter,1943.In these films the plots are as ridiculous as Carrefour,but the films are well worth viewing.                                                                                #2 On the Loose A Real Gem.An exceptionally interesting drama from start to finish with memorable performances.
