1914法国犯罪·剧情
Returning to Havre after a long and prosperous voyage, Captain Pierre Bernier looks forward to rejoining his family in Paris. He reports to his company and is chagrined to receive orders to remain in port for several days. Unable to use the safe of the steamship company, he deposits $10,000 (his share of the profits) with a local bank and places the receipt in a letter which he intends to mail to his wife. Unfortunately, Jacques Villebrun, the president of the bank in which he deposited his money, is about to decamp with the entire funds. Renaud, a clerk, discovers the flight and threatens exposure unless he receives a large share of the money. Villebrun promises him a large sum and they proceed to make their getaway. Bernier learns that the bank is unsteady, decides to withdraw his money and returns to the bank. He is murdered by Villebrun in a struggle and his body is thrown over a cliff. The clerk has meanwhile found the receipt for $10,000 and keeps it.
