Forget Chabrol. More a shambles.
You can see where Chabrol was going with this film. Very Hitchcock. The strange girl who tells lies (or are they lies), the lovers pact (though only one completes it) but in the end the film fails on too many levels. The acting though is great. A real pleasure. But the script is all over the place, the mise-en-scene is cliched and the ending is terrible. So watch it for the acting, hate it for the plot holes, the lack of compelling characterisation and the ending.
