Julien Duvivier's poignant story about "Carrot Top," an unloved boy who is mistreated by his mother, ignored by his father, and tormented by his siblings. Though neglect eventually compels the boy to attempt suicide, Duvivier uses inventive camera tricks to bring a light-heartedness to the weighty material. Duvivier also made a talkie version of this story in 1932.
