QuickView
Story-line: a school principal's wife and his mistress conspire to kill him.
Pluses: marvelous acting, a disturbing atmosphere, a great script based on a novel by Boileau-Narcejac.
Minuses: not a movie for the faint-hearted.
Comments: this old-time film by a French master is one of the best thrillers ever. Really frightening stuff!
