Making slow progress through his collection - the set of eight films.The first two - Le Boucher and Les Biches were disappointments, but this one offers at least some material to think about.
I remember seeing this one many years ago... a well-forgotten experience. Not a great movie, but with just enough suspense and atmosphere to make it passable. In this one, unlike in the two others, you can feel the psychology of characters' actions, you can identify with their feelings... the others were more like posters.
One interesting note, something not to escape the sharp eye - when the main character drives through the streets, he passes a movie theater, with Les Biches anouncement on the front. He-he... director love thyself.
Not something I would recommend if you are looking for a serious movie, but not too bad for a light fare.
Follow Ups:
Victor,I believe both Hitchcock and Clint Eastwood (and maybe Truffaut?) did the "past" movie trick with some of their earlier films...I always look at "what's playing" at the theater shown in film scenes...shows the director's sense of humor, I think.
This Chabrol film was the original of the Unfaithful remake starring Dianne Lane and Richie Gere, right? Have you seen the remake? Compare and contrast?
Thanks,
Gary
Yes, I am aware of the remake, but haven't seen it.
