Leeroy K 05/17/2024 Really disturbing, most likely because one can recognize reality in the movie and reflect upon life and society... The ending is a bit too much, although when you read the main actor's biography and his death...maybe not so much. All in all, a great movie worth watching! See more 05/20/2017 Fascinating and creepy Chabrol drama about a claustrophobically possessive man (played fastidiously well by the film's screenwriter Paul Gegauff) who demands an open relationship with his lover but cannot deal with the consequences. The tension is there throughout, leavened occasionally by bitter humour. A welcome return to form for Chabrol after a couple of real duds. See more 05/20/2012 just ok not really my bag See more 12/13/2011 Odd Chabrol film is like watching a train wreck. See more 03/21/2011 Attacked by many Critics as sexist Chabrols film focuses on the cancer of in fidelity at the heart of a relationship. Chabrol cast his regular writer Paul Gegauff as Phillipe a man who has had various affairs but turns into something rahter sinister when his common law wife starts to beat him at his own game. Chabrol hit upon the rahter ingenious idea of casting Gegauffs ex wife as the women scorned. What follows is a deliciously nasty tale of back stabbing and violence which spirals into the shocking final scene . The film has a mean streak at its core ,but then as Chabrol is keen to point out life has a mean streak also. It does drag in places and it a long way from vinatge Chabrol ,but its still an interesting movie with plenty to say about the human condition See more 07/09/2010 I love this film and would watch it again and again See more Read all reviews
