La Grande Meute

La Grande Meute is a 1945 French film directed by Jean de Limur.

The title refers to a pack of dogs inherited by Côme de Lambrefaut through the family mansion on the death of his father. Everything else apart from the 110 hunting dogs has been mortgaged. He marries Agnès de Charençay, who shares his enthusiasm for the hunt, but this leads to the death of their son and hopes of descendants. Agnès divorces and marries a man whose wealth helps her to humiliate Côme, by buying his debts, slowly acquiring everything. In September 1939, the house is destroyed by gunfire and the dogs all escape.

The film recorded admissions in France of 1,754,414.[1]
