The honeymooners


“Over the past fifty years, Claude Chabrol has put together a unique body of work, an ongoing study of human behavior often set in the thriller genre. His stories of murder and deception have invited comparisons with Alfred Hitchcock, yet ever since Le Beau Serge (1958) and continuing in more than sixty features through La Fleur du mal (2003), he’s sharpened his skills in satire and as a critic of mores and morality, often at the expense of the bourgeoisie. Hitchcock? At this point in time, the parallel to Luis Buñuel seems hard to ignore.” Read the review of La Demoiselle d'honneur now on Flickhead!

Quit reading when I realized this was *another* Rendell adaptation, and instead rushed to add it to my Netflix queue. If it is even 1/2 as good as La Ceremonie I will enjoy it no end. And I will save your review for dessert.
Thanks, Siren!
