Claude Chabrol was the most prolific of the New Wave directors. He didn’t only do murder thrillers; this fine selection of Chabrols from the ten year period 1985-1994 begins with a pair of detective tales but moves on to a masterful adaptation of a great book and two engrossing experiments, one of them picking up where an earlier French master left off. The players are terrific as well: Jean Poiret, Stéphane Audran, Jean-Claude Brialy, Bernadette Lafont, Isabelle Huppert, Jean-François Balmer, Christophe Malavoy, Jean Yanne, Marie Trintignant, Jean-François Garreaud, Emmanuelle Béart, François Cluzet.

Lies and Deceit: Five Films by Claude Chabrol – a new 5-disc set will be available on Blu-ray February 22nd from Arrow Video
Too often overlooked and undervalued, Claude Chabrol was the first of the Cahiers du Cinema critics to release a feature film and would be among the most prolific. The sneaky anarchist of the French New Wave, he embraced genre as a means off lifting the lid on human nature. Nothing is sacred and nothing is certain in the films of Claude Chabrol. Anything can be corrupted, and usually will be.

Cinema is a kind of uber-art form that’s made up of a multitude of other forms of art including writing, directing, acting, drawing, design, photography and fashion. As such, film is, as all cinema aficionados know, a highly collaborative venture.
One of the most consistently fascinating collaborations in cinema is that of the director and actor.
This article will examine some of the great director & actor teams. It’s important to note that this piece is not intended as a film history survey detailing all the generally revered collaborations.
There is a wealth of information and study available on such duos as John Ford & John Wayne, Howard Hawks & John Wayne, Elia Kazan & Marlon Brando, Akira Kurosawa & Toshiro Mifune, Alfred Hitchcock & James Stewart, Ingmar Bergman & Max Von Sydow, Federico Fellini & Giulietta Masina/Marcello Mastroianni, Billy Wilder & Jack Lemmon, Francis Ford Coppola & Al Pacino, Woody Allen & Diane Keaton, Martin Scorsese & Robert DeNiro...

It’s always sad to write about anybody who dies in the film business, but today’s loss is a big one. Claude Chabrol, a fellow critic and one of the founders of the French New Wave, which is a very big part of the Criterion Collection, has died at the age of 80. And like most filmmakers, he was working right until the end which is what all artists do when they love the medium as much as they do. So I wanted to take a few minutes out of your time to showcase a top 10 of his films. Sadly he isn’t featured within the Collection, but he is one of many directors that deserves a place within its walls. So without further adieu, let’s get into the wonders of Claude Chabrol.

Claude Chabrol, one of France's most well known directors, has died at the age of 80.
The filmmaker is most famous for his work in the 1960s and 70s, including The Unfaithful Wife, The Butcher and This Man Must Die. During his career, in which he made over 50 films, Chabrol was nominated for the Cannes Film Festival’s Golden Palm award twice, once in 1978 for Violette Noziere and for a second time in 1985 for Poulet au vinaigre.
Chabrol’s death has seen tributes pour in from across the industry, as well as key French political figures. "With the death of Claude Chabrol, French cinema has lost one of its maestros," said French Prime Minister Francois Fillon in a statement.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy also acknowledged Chabrol’s life’s work, describing the director as a "great author and great film-maker".

One of the leading pioneers of the French New Wave movement, Claude Chabrol, died yesterday in Paris at the age of 80. Over the course of his 50 year career, Chabrol made over 80 films, his last being Bellamy starring Gérard Depardieu, released only last year.
Like many of his New Wave counterparts, Chabrol started his film career first as a critic, after initially studying to be a pharmocologist. He wrote for the legendary Cahiers du Cinema along with Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut and Alain Resnais before going on to write and direct his first film, Handsome Serge in 1958,widely considered to be the first New Wave film.
From that point he continued to make fim after film, and his thrillers, uncovering the darkness in bourgeois society and exposing class tensions, are what many people remember most about him. He averaged one film a year though on many occasions made two or three a year untill his death.

This is a sad day indeed. French New Wave pioneer, Claude Chabrol, has died today aged 80. Always my personal favourite of the Cahiers du Cinema gang Chabrol’s 1958 movie Le Beau Serge and Les Cousins (1959) helped kick-start the movement.
Mayor of Paris Bertrand Delanoe described the film-maker as:
“Claude Chabrol produced an immense and particularly inspired body or work that stands today as a monument of French cinema.”
Before venturing into the film-making world, he worked alongside Jean-Luc Godard, Francois Truffaut, Jacques Rivette and Eric Rohmer at the famous Cahiers du Cinema magazine in the 1950s.
In the late ’60s he produced a string of classic thriller pictures including the masterpiece Le Boucher and Les Biches (1968), La Femme infidèle (1969), Que la bête meure (1969), Le Boucher (1970)
and La Rupture (1970).
In the 1980s and ’90s he returned to acclaim with Isabelle Huppert at his side in a string of classy films such as Madame Bovary,...

Paris – French filmmaker Claude Chabrol, father of the New Wave movement, has died at age 80, Paris deputy mayor Christophe Girard confirmed on Sunday.
Chabrol began his career as a critic for prestigious Gallic film magazine Les Cahiers du Cinema then went on to become a prominent director with more than 50 films under his belt. He helped to launch the New Wave movement in the 1950s and hasn’t stopped working since.
Chabrol is known as a more mainstream director who has managed to make auteur cinema accessible to audiences both in France and abroad.
From “Le Beau Serge” in 1959 to his more recent titles including 2009's "Bellamy," 2007's "A Girl Cut in Two" and 2006 film "A Comedy of Power," Chabrol's career has had an uncommonly long and successful run through his more than half-century career.
