Overview:
Claude Chabrol is both student and master of human psychology. In his coolly elegant films, revenge (both justified and misguided), jealousy, grief and even class warfare are jumping off points for richly textured character studies. The "whys" of human behavior are examined without ever striving for pat or simplistic answers; his is not a world of either happily ever after or psycho-babble comforts. It's the complexities (paradoxes, inscrutable impulses, relentless obsessions) and the ways they manifest themselves that interest him. The films of Chabrol - who is, paradoxically, both a huge influence on world cinema and a far too little recognized talent - inspire, challenge and provoke his audience. At their finest, they are pure art.
