Les misérables (1934)

 Director : Raymond Bernard 

CinematographerJules Kruger

Production designer: Lucien Carrier / Jean Perrier

After Walter Percy Day returned to England art director Jean Perrier, who had Per Day several times  painting on his films, started to use those tricks on his own way. I cannot be sure if he executed the   paintings himself or if he just designed the trick shots and had some scenic artist for the paintings.


Three glass shots.




That ceiling  on the last image, I am not sure if it is a foreground miniature or a glass shot.

 Miniatures were used very often on French films during those early years.
