Excision from Style section

edit

Removed passage below, on three grounds. One that it contains inaccuracies, two that it is a point of view rather than encyclopedic, and three because as written it does not really fit under the heading Style:

Carné uses a ship-in-a-bottle and Nelly's translucent raincoat as metaphors for the sense of entrapment and ephemerality. Michèle Morgan's character falls in line with Carné's theme of androgynous women (that is further emphasized in Les Visiteurs du Soir, 1942). Throughout the film Nelly wears a beret and a trenchcoat, and walks with her head bent and hands in her pockets, presenting a tomboyish variant of Gabin's uniform and gait.[1]
