The Seventh Commandment

About This Movie

The Seventh Commandment is an intriguing blend of comedy and romance that captures the essence of con artistry with a light touch. Princesse Nadia Vronskaïa, a cunning and charming lead, showcases a delightful performance as she navigates the world of swindling unsuspecting wealthy men. The pacing ebbs and flows, with moments of tension and levity that keep you engaged throughout. What’s particularly enjoyable is how the film flips the script when Nadia falls for one of her marks, leading to an unexpected twist. It’s the kind of film that feels both playful and a bit daring, making it an interesting watch for collectors who appreciate character-driven narratives and clever plot turns.

The Seventh Commandment has seen limited releases over the years, making its physical formats rather scarce, especially in good condition. Original prints are particularly sought after, and collectors often note the film's unique charm as a comedic take on con games. Its somewhat obscure status adds a layer of intrigue for those who appreciate lesser-known gems from the 1950s.
