New on Blu-ray: LIES AND DECEIT - FIVE FILMS BY CLAUDE CHABROL (Cop au Vin / Inspector Lavardin / Madame Bovary / Betty / Torment)

New on Blu-ray: LIES AND DECEIT - FIVE FILMS BY CLAUDE CHABROL (Cop au Vin / Inspector Lavardin / Madame Bovary / Betty / Torment)

Product Description: 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.

Arrow Video is proud to present Lies & deceit: Five Films by Claude Chabrol. Featuring Cop Au Vin (Poulet au vinaigre), Inspector Lavardin, Madame Bovary, Betty and Torment (L’enfer), this inaugural collection of Claude Chabrol on Blu-ray brings together a wealth of passionate contributors and archival extras to shed fresh light on the films and the filmmaker. Dark, witty, ruthless, mischievous: if you’ve never seen Chabrol before, you’re in for a treat. If you have, they’ve never looked better.
