"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."
- Ernest Hardy
