(Claude Chabrol, France 1960, 100 min., French/subtitles)

With a rigorous, unsentimental eye, Chabrol examines the everyday lives and ultimate fates of four young women (including Bernadette Lafont and Stephane Audrane) who work at an appliance store in Paris. “Arguably the best as well as the most disturbing movie Claude Chabrol has made to date”—Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader.
