Ten years ago, critics - 克洛德夏布 lol deception Quartet

Well-known French director, once one of the founders of the New Wave film movement Claude - Chabrol, local time on September 12 in Paris, France, died at the age of 80.Posts commemorate former film critic.




The so-called Quartet, are not similar to the trilogy of the same Suit in, but the next two days saw the founding of the French New Wave film Chabrol's four films, four films in the interest of the common cause, like string quartets, call touching heart.This four films are: "double deception" (1959), "Death to let the Devil" (1969), "times the City" (1992), "Ceremony" (1995), taken at four different times, Chabrol was "Film Comment magazine," the critic, is a director of high yield, single-style black comedy love human reality.In the four films, whether it is "double deception" and "times the City" on the bourgeois family life, tired and irony, or "ritual" heavy black means, "Let the Devil Death to" the tragic sinking and retrospective are trans with this theme: on the fraud, in fine family life of deception.It is claimed that Chabrol film is unique, is dealing with everyday things like mess in the seemingly positive conclusion that the alleged to overthrow the conclusions, as Roland Barthes in his famous chapter referred to in the "confusion of cause and effect.""Double deception", by living in the countryside are being subjected to external forces flashy erosion of family: his father fell in love with a woman outside Lleida, is envisaged to leave the family and lover to flee. At this moment: Leda was killed. Who is the murderer? Everyone seems doubtful, jealous of his wife? Seriousness of the daughter?Little Oedipus, eccentric son? And that play by the Belmondo, looking just been lifted with the dissolute son of the identity of the other provinces next guy, then that is killing the son of Leda. The most likely are the most difficult to believe, Chabrol's camera like the x-ray can penetrate a person in the middle of rotation, even Leda's lover - the father, is also questionable, perhaps he tired of their relationship, want to conform with the status and ethics of the family? Chabrol's first re-deception is a murderer on everyone's hiding, sin was covered up. In the case of Hitchcock-like suspense fan mode, but the results took place against Hitchcock, some without beginning reasoning narrative fell designated answer: a woman really died of his son's hands. In a way, this is a sense of smell is the answer, the narrator like castles in the air, difficult to meet the thirst for suspense and shock of appetite. From this, the second re-deception seems to come from the director, to a circular top, exposed in the wild after a simple rotating face."Double deception" and another "frame" is the image of the virtual play Leda mean, in the image, Leda never appears directly, but always in someone else's narrative, or a mirror, the reflection in the door frame . In the father's imagination and description, the Leda, and he walks in the meadow full of flowers, embracing no one else walking in the street, the son of Leda's eyes can be a mysterious woman, a maid can be described under a brilliant body. However, whether Leda had her own? Chabrol deceive us, too gentle to deceive."Let the Devil Death to" In the beginning, around the means already full of fate, the little boy alone in the corner not being an early, not later held a car and killed fast. Father into endless grief and hatred, vowed to find the escape of the murderer, the possible solution to this irresponsible act of the devil himself. The investigation soon be generally looks accidental: the perpetrators sat around a TV hostess, was the father for trying to expose the mysteries of deceit: and the suspect close to wait for the girls feel good to him, once again thoroughly her background, the fact that more and more clear, the drivers are girls that car repair shop's brother, this man was extremely rude to the implementation of horrific dictatorship within the family, the spirit of the people around him completely inhibited. So in this family, who were caught attempting to avenge a conspiracy: the perpetrators of 13-year-old son, full of hatred of the boy is looking for opportunities to kill his father. Give up the chance to be the last Avenger Edipusi received, it really was the son killed his father. Attempt to avenge his son's boat ride away sad man, the feeling is that he is the murderer and destroyed the boy's life. Who is Who conspiracy, Avenger had found the little boy on his father's hatred, he avoided the same time to kill and did not imply compassion, but the subconscious hope that the men perish in other ways, but opponents of the death and did not make him escape. His guilt, a former son, now a teenager, because he gave him the opportunity to kill his father."Times the City" is to use deception against social norms and moral way of life was a mockery of Chabrol style. Times the City as a wife, betrayed the family, emotional wallow fall, seems caught in the shackles of self-destruction. But after further betrayal - betrayal helped and comforted his girlfriend, but strange to receive a new life, which is times the pedicle of life. Can not use logic to explain the rational, the director in the works trying to flash back to explore the contours of the inner world of characters, times the City's life is a mess of the coil group, in whom the drunk and sober sort out a clearcontext. Times the County of past life back on her life is full of texture, even though she was only lucky enough to receive the grace of life, but she did not deviate from his heart, like childhood, that dark cellar actually be able to call her beautiful hair long for As a woman, she did not try to approach life with elegance, but the true face of the desire in mind, at this point, times the City is vibrant and beautiful, although her attitude and the so-called ethical relationship between fire and water."Ceremony" in the violence are movies I have seen one of the most startling piece of absolutely complete Chabrol "causal chaos," crazy killing and causes much exfoliation, from common sense that if only because of being exposed to conceal dyslexia, never not worthwhile to kill host a family of four, while in addition to killing the irrational motive, that the stabilization time of the killings and calm is also striking, and occurred in both the young woman. Committed a crime, they cleaned the gun, put the original on the shelf, and said good night, kiss goodbye, as the completion ceremony of a skilled Enron. The accident occurred while the final event of the occasional highlight means, murder, may be unconscious of anger, death, can be a kind of inertia. Caused a small deception is aghast cruel, but the director side here, but as a cool look and even those who pushed the person. Chabrol in the vortex of conflict in trying to find a quiet leaves floating on the water, but leaves behind the sadness has no place to escape.See Chabrol film reminded me of Bunuel's "prudent bourgeois charm", I thought it was a way of life the film is the best satire, which has never been able to dinner, those who dream dreams of the inexplicable . And Chabrol explained the topic and so close, there is such a different way of expression, also the placement of a Hitchcock-like profile that Bunuel's film is "Hitchcock met the Bergman, "while Chabrol may be" caught by Antonioni Hitchcock ", so that seems deliberate, not only the formation of any state is a simple collage. And Chabrol deal with the dignified style of the film looks like murder, the reality in black along their path in lone.
