Angel and Sinner
|
Angel and Sinner is a 1945 movie directed by Christian-Jaque and based on the 1880 short story by Guy de Maupassant. Normandy, 1870. Prostitute Élisabeth decides to leave France, occupied by the Prussian army. She leaves Rouen and heads for Le Havre in a stagecoach with a group of aristocrats. When the carriage stops at an inn, a Prussian officer forbids the passengers to continue their journey until Élisabeth spends the night with him. At first, she refuses to submit to the enemy, but out of pity for her fellow passengers, she relents. And still, the stagecoach did not get far - it is captured by Prussian soldiers. And all the women are taken to the sadistic lieutenant's castle.
The following weapons were used in the film Angel and Sinner:
Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 10
A Prussian officer is seen with what appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver.
Rifles
Chassepot Mle. 1866
French and Prussian soldiers are armed with Chassepot 1866 rifles. Actually, the main weapon of the Prussians at that time was the Dreyse Needle Gun.
Unknown Percussion Rifle
Some franc-tireurs (free shooters) are equipped with unknown muzzleloading rifles which could be some type of Minié rifle. A possible guess is the Chasseur de Vincennes Rifle but the screen used rifles lack the rear sights and have different front barrel bands.
