Claude Chabrol
Description:In LES COUSINS, Claude Chabrol (LES BONNES FEMMES) crafts a sly moral fable about a provincial boy who comes to live with his sophisticated bohemian cousin in Paris. Through these seeming opposites, Chabrol conjures a piercing, darkly comic character study that questions notions of good and evil, love and jealousy, and success in the modern world. A mirror image of LE BEAU SERGE, Chabrols debut, LES COUSINS recasts that films stars, Jean-Claude Brialy and Girard Blain, in startlingly reversed roles. This dagger-sharp drama won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival and was an important precursor to the French New Wave.
"Les Cousins," available in Blu-Ray format from Criterion, is a masterful French New Wave film directed by Claude Chabrol. This 1959 drama explores the contrasting lives of two cousins?Paul (Jean-Claude Brialy), a sophisticated Parisian, and Charles (Gérard Blain), his naive provincial relative?as they navigate love, morality, and fate in postwar France. The Criterion Collection is renowned for its meticulous restorations and insightful supplements that celebrate cinema's greatest works. Director Claude Chabrol was a pivotal figure in the French New Wave movement with acclaimed films like "Le Beau Serge" and "La Cérémonie." Jean-Claude Brialy starred in numerous classics such as "The 400 Blows," while Gérard Blain was known for his collaborations with Chabrol and roles in influential European cinema. Stéphane Audran, another key cast member, later became an icon through her performances in Chabrol?s films and international hits like "Babette?s Feast."
