"An elegant study in perversity." -Edward Guthman, SF Chronicle
Merci Pour Le Chocolat, his 48th feature film, is vintage Chabrol: intricate plots wend their way through the elegant homes of several well-heeled French-Swiss, in the environs of Lausanne, Switzerland. Isabelle Huppert stars as Mika, the couture-attired, oh-so-perfect head of a company that manufactures Swiss chocolate; Jacques Dutronc is Andre, her suave, concert pianist husband whose first wife died years ago in a mysterious car accident.
When a beautiful young woman unexpectedly enters Mika and Ander's life, long-held secrets are revealed and facades fall away. Chabrol, the most Hitchcockian of the New Wave directors, has fashioned a delectable psychological thriller, dipped in darkest Swiss chocolate. |
