- Les Bonnes Femmes (1960) Despite playing a central role in the nouvelle vague, Chabrol did not make a truly great film until the movement was drawing to a close.
- Le Boucher (1970) In the run of films Chabrol made between 1968 and 1978 – often referred to as his golden era – the director repurposed the thriller to explore the baser instincts bubbling beneath the manicured surface of the bourgeoisie.
- La Rupture (1970) The two darkest films of Chabrol’s golden era both deal with parental responses to attacks on children. Que la bête meure (1969), in which a father seeks to murder the hit-and-run driver who killed his son, pursues its quarry with clear-eyed moral purpose, but La Rupture, following a woman who leaves her husband after he attacks their son, has a bleaker edge that places it in the same tonal register as Roman Polanski’s great psychological horror pictures.
