I Accuse!

I Accuse! (1958)

Alfred Dreyfus, a German-Jewish captain serving in the French Army, is falsely accused of treason and made a scapegoat for military espionage in an act of institutional anti-Semitism. Sent to prison, he becomes a cause célèbre for the novelist Émile Zola, who dubs it the "Dreyfus Affair." Eventually, Dreyfus is pardoned when the military cover-up is made public, and he returns to France. But his name is forever tarnished by the accusations of treason.

흥미로운 사실

I Accuse! is a 1958 British biographical historical drama film based on the Dreyfus affair, in which a Jewish captain in the French Army, Alfred Dreyfus, was falsely accused of treason and imprisoned for five years before being pardoned. The film is directed by and stars José Ferrer in the leading role, with Anton Walbrook, Viveca Lindfors, Leo Genn, Emlyn Williams, David Farrar, Donald Wolfit, and Herbert Lom. The screenplay, written by Gore Vidal, on Nicholas Halasz’s 1955 account Captain Dreyfus; The Story of a Mass Hysteria.

Production

The film was based on a book Captain Dreyfus: Story of Mass Hysteria which was published in 1955. In October 1955 MGM acquired an option on the film rights. The story had been filmed previously, notably in The Life of Émile Zola, but MGM claimed the book "contains quite a bit of material that had not come to life before".

The film was known as Captain Dreyfus before being retitled I Accuse.

Due to the film's unflattering portrayal of the French military, the government refused to allow filming in Paris. Instead, the film was shot on-location in Belgium, West Germany, and MGM-British Studios in Borehamwood, England. Filming finished by June 1957.
