Semana em honra de Michel Piccoli (1925 - 2020) filme #5. Infelizmente os filmes baseados em casos reais do Chabrol não conseguem ter a mesma força de seus roteiros puramente ficcionais, mas esse conto dos amantes fatais e fatalistas tem algumas qualidades, especialmente a trilha sonora que dá um toque hitchcockiano, o que é usual ao diretor. DVDRip no MakingOff.

A film the entirety of whose aim is to set up the question at the end: why choose to take such risks instead of just leaving? Alternatively, the moral could be construed as: if you're going to do it, then make sure to get rid of everyone who could potentially cause you a problem. What makes this superior to similar films is the way in which Chabrol cuts out everything extraneous.

Chabrol was making better films than this in those years, but this is a pretty nice, very straightforward thriller in the Postman Rings Twice tradition. Not a lot of surprises, but making sense is an achievement in and of itself in this genre.
