"Les Bonnes Femmes"
1960
Directed by Claude Chabrol

Bernadette Lafont, Clotilde Joano, Stephane Audran and Lucille Saint-Simon star as four working girls in Paris in this brilliant New Wave thriller by Claude Chabrol. What they hope to find is love, but each ends up in the hands of a killer. As always, Chabrol is interested more in the milieu which supports his characters than in the suspense, as he gives us an intimate look at ordinary lives full of boredom and vague dreams. Cinematography by Henri Decae. French with English subtitles. 105 minutes.
