		However, in the days of Emile Zola information was usually from one, or a few sources, which often proclaimed that the information was the "truth", as it was seldom challenged, until Zola.
		The life of the French writer is broadly sketched in the early going, but the film settles into its groove with the Dreyfus affair: the scandalous railroading of a military captain for treason, which shook France to its foundation in the 1890s.
		The elderly Zola's gradual involvement in the case, climaxing with his electrifying "J'accuse!" essay and subsequent trial for libel, is the heart and soul of the picture.

		Emile Zola (played by Paul Muni) is a struggling writer who shares a run down attic apartment with his best friend Paul Cezanne (played by Vladimir Sokoloff), another struggling artist of sorts — a painter.
		Emile gathers a number of officials and reporters in a display of support for the wrongly convicted officer and publishes an extensive manifesto in the local newspaper denouncing the officials who were responsible for the corruption and cover-ups.
		The published letter results in charges for Emile for speaking out against the government as well as the Dreyfus scandal, and suddenly the writer himself is faced with making one of the most difficult decisions of his life.

	REELINSIDER.COM - THE LIFE OF EMILE ZOLA (1937)
		Telling the true story of Emile Zola from his humble beginnings in the early 1860s through his world-renowned literary fame, social activism and death at the turn of the century, William Dieterle's movie is actually a picture told in two halves.
		Where an older, more refined and wealthy Zola is at first indifferent to the outrages committed against Alfred Dreyfus (Joseph Schildkraut), a Jewish career army officer railroaded as scapegoat for a leak in the French war department, he ends up a critic of the establishment and, therefore, a criminal himself.
		It favors a vignette structure to pack whole decades of Zola's life into a few moments of screen time and then allows the final third of the film to bog down in a courtroom showdown between Zola and the French army.

		Zola and Cezanne meet a streetwalker, Nana, who pours out a tale of economically blighted woe, the result of which is to fire Zola's imagination to write a novel exposing the corruption of a society that allowed such otherwise decent women to go astray.
		Zola and Dreyfus never met, but their interaction set the stage for some political fireworks that rocked the very core of the French government.
		Zola's 'I Accuse' harangue rings with the sincerity of a man who is willing to take on the Powers That Be to save a country's honor when those very corrupt Powers argue that their own sense of honor requires the opposite.

		However, Madame Dreyfus eventually appeals to Zola’s sense of justice, and the rest of the film follows his attempts to establish Dreyfus’s innocence along with the ways this affects his own life.
		It’s intriguing to watch Zola’s early career and his rise to prominence, but to a degree, it feels like little more than exposition as the movie builds to the Dreyfus elements.

	DVD Savant Review: The Life of Emile Zola
		Emile Zola champions the defense of Alfred Dreyfus and brings down half the French army over a corruption scandal.
		Just as Emile is about to be inducted into special state honors, he risks his career and reputation on a reckless defense of Captain Alfred Dreyfus (Joseph Schildkraut), a Jewish army officer made the scapegoat for a breach in security by unscrupulous bigshots in the general staff.
		At only one point in The Life of Emile Zola is Alfred Dreyfus identified as Jewish, and I'll bet that the writers and producers of the movie had to fight to keep that reference, seen only as a fleeting word on a statistical blotter.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: The Life of Emile Zola (1937)
		The Life of Emile Zola brings to life an inspirational account of Emile Zola's defense of Alfred Dreyfus, first the victim of a wrongful charge of espionage and then of the government's efforts to cover for itself.
		Despite the title, other aspects of Zola's life are muted, but the details -- his early friendship with Paul Cezanne and the beginnings of his controversial writing career -- flesh out the picture, giving the story context and the characters motivation.
		They also serve to show how real Zola was, not a mysterious great man but simply a man with convictions and the gumption to speak out against injustice.

	VH1.com : Movies : Movie : The Life of Emile Zola : Review
		The lion's share of the film is devoted to Zola's attempts to clear the reputation of Army captain Alfred Dreyfus (Joseph Schildkraut), who has been framed on a charge of treason by his superiors and condemned to Devil's Island.
		At his funeral, Emile Zola is eulogized by Anatole France (Morris Carnovsky), who refers to the fallen crusader as "a moment of the conscience of man." For various reasons -- some dramatic, some legal -- the actual facts of "L'affaire Dreyfus" are altered by the Norman Reilly Raine/Heinz Herald/Geza Herczeg screenplay.
		If for nothing else, The Life of Emile Zola deserves classic status due to Paul Muni's towering performance, most notably in the unforgettable summation scene: "By all that I have done for France, by my works -- by all that I have written, I swear to you that Dreyfus is innocent.
