Claude Chabrol: His 30 best films. by cafg-0 • Created 12 years ago • Modified 2 months ago. One of the best French directors ever. A master of suspense in all the sense of the word.
- 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.
- Alice ou la Dernière Fugue (1977) From ropey spy films to Orson Welles vehicles, Chabrol’s career is full of outliers, but the best, and indeed the most revealing, is his loose Alice in Wonderland adaptation Alice ou la Dernière Fugue.
