Died
September 12, 2010

Genre
Arts & Photography, Nonfiction, Professional & Technical


Claude Chabrol was a French film director, a member of the French New Wave (Nouvelle Vague) group of filmmakers who first came to prominence at the end of the 1950s. Like his colleagues and contemporaries Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut, Éric Rohmer and Jacques Rivette, Chabrol was a critic for the influential film magazine Cahiers du cinéma before beginning his career as a film maker.

Chabrol's career began with Le Beau Serge (1958), inspired by Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt (1943). Thrillers became something of a trademark for Chabrol, with an approach characterized by a distanced objectivity. This is especially apparent in Les Biches (1968), La Femme Infidèle (1969) and Le Boucher (1970) — all featuring his then-wife, Stéphane Audran.

“Le cinéma est un des rares arts où le spectateur a un complexe de supériorité vis-à-vis de la chose qu'il voit. Il a tendance à se marrer, à se foutre de ce qu'il y a sur l'écran”
