LES DIABOLIQUES (1955) d. Henri-Georges Clouzout (France)
Slip into the dark and suspenseful world of “The French Hitchcock,” Henri-Georges Clouzot (The Wages of Fear), and his extraordinary nonpareil of suspense, 1955’s Les Diaboliques, where nothing is as it seems and every twist keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Set in and around a remote boarding school, a frail wife (Vera Clouzout) and her romantic rival (Simone Signoret) plot to murder her cruel, abusive husband (Paul Meurisse). But when things do not go as planned, the two women are thrust into a terrifying psychological nightmare where nothing is what it seems.
From its chilling atmosphere to the unforgettable performances, we’ll explore every haunting detail that makes Les Diaboliques one of the most daring and suspenseful features ever made, ripe for rediscovery by a new generation on this, its 70th anniversary!
Packed with secrets and surprises, AC and his marvelous panel of guests (Don Bapst, Mark Easteadt, Melissa Hannon, Doug Long, and Cullen Wade) break down this cinematic masterpiece’s groundbreaking narrative, exploring how it revolutionized psychological thrillers and inspired countless filmmakers, including The Master himself.
