This is the second Clouzot movie i watch. The first (Les diaboliques) was a great movie (8,3/10 is my rating). This one is not as good, still a delight to watch. It's a comedy/mystery movie, a whodunit. It's more insane than you can imagine, especially for a 1942 movie, insane in a good way : It's almost surreal at times. There are some hilarious scenes, Suzy Delair is unbelieavably funny and overall, it was a fun ride. I can't rate it higher even though the final revelation is very clever for a movie of this time era. I mean, it's not mindblowing neither groundbreaking or exciting. Just an enjoyable movie for everyone.
