Description
Claude Chabrol crafts a sly moral fable about a provincial boy who comes to live with his sophisticated bohemian cousin in Paris. Through these seeming opposites, Chabrol conjures a piercing, darkly comic character study that questions notions of good and evil, love and jealousy, and success in the modern world. A mirror image of Le Beau Serge, Les Cousins recasts that film's stars, Jean-Claude Brialy and Gřard Blain, in startlingly reversed roles....

Description
The incandescent Jeanne Moreau stars as an avenging angel in François Truffaut's homage to the films of Alfred Hitchcock that takes in its own strangely poetic ambiance. Based on a book by genre novelist Cornell Woolrich (aka William Irish) and shot by the legendary Raoul Coutard, the film -- about a widow who goes after the five men she believes murdered her husband on their wedding day -- provides a brilliant contrast between dark deed and the...

Description
The prismatic portrait of the days and nights of a party girl in sixties Rome is a revelation. It follows the gorgeous, seemingly liberated Adriana as she dallies with a wide variety of men, attends parties, goes to modeling gigs, and circulates among the rich and famous. Despite its often light tone, though, the film is a stealth portrait of a suffocating culture that regularly dehumanizes people, especially women.
