Alice ou la dernière fugue (1977)



A young woman leaves her lover and ventures forth in a blinding rainstorm and becomes entangled in the strange world of an isolated villa populated with people who will not answer questions and who speak in existential riddles.

From memory: Mesmerizing and surreal fantasy, meticulously staged, Sylvia Kristel perfectly cast in the title role; one of Chabrol's best works, and probably one of hus least known as well.
