Claude Chabrol has made more than 50 films in a career spanning 40 years. This account traces the development of his film style from the experimental period of the Nouvelle Vague to the mature thriller of the 1970s and the work of the 1990s.
This is the first book-length study in English on Chabrol since 1970. Chabrol has always been a neglected figure in the French New Wave but has recently been declared ''possibly the greatest living film director in France''. Coincides with the recent renewal of interest in Chabrol, which has seen his back catalogue released in the UK on video. Celebration of Chabrol''s fiftieth film recently, Rien ne va plus prompted many festivals and retrospectives. Publication coincides with Chabrol''s new film which is discussed in this study. Writtten by one of the liveliest critics in French cinema - author of Contemporary French Cinema.
