Taras Bulba (French:Tarass Boulba) is a 1936 French historical drama film directed by Alexis Granowsky and starring Harry Baur, Jean-Pierre Aumont and Danielle Darrieux. It is one of many films based on the story of Taras Bulba.
The film's sets were designed by the art directors Lucien Aguettand and Andrej Andrejew. The costumes were designed by Georges Annenkov. Many of the film's production team were Russian exiles, who had left following the Russian Revolution. The rights to the film were bought by Alexander Korda who remade it in Britain as The Rebel Son.
