Feu Mathias Pascal The late Matthias Pascal is a 1925 French silent film written and directed by Marcel LHerbier. It was the first film adaptation of Luigi Pirandellos novel Il fu Mattia Pascal.
LHerbiers ideal choice for the title role was the Russian migr actor Ivan Mosjoukine who was under contract to the Films Albatros company. Negotiations then led to a shared production agreement for the film between LHerbiers own company Cingraphic and Albatros.Filming began in December 1924 with location shooting in Rome, San Gimignano, and Monte Carlo. Studio filming took place at the Montreuil and pinay studios. Set designs were produced by Alberto Cavalcanti and Lazare Meerson in his first assignment. ........
