Daily Movie Rec 8/10/2023
Le Corbeau (1943)
"What we're dealing with here is not a slanderer, but a sick man."
Directed by: Henri-Georges Clouzot
Cinematography by: Nicolas Hayer
Country: France
Plot:
When an unknown culprit sends anonymous poison-pen letters to a small town's residents, paranoia and fear build to a fever pitch.
Reasons to watch:
Clouzot keeps the audience guessing until the end with this neurotic mystery featuring low-key one of the decade's most manipulative antagonists. I'd even watched this movie before and still felt like I got played by the psychological sadist.
Where to watch:
The Criterion Channel
