Film International: Violette Noziere

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

starring Isabelle Huppert
Stephane Audran , Jean Carmet
In 1934 the crime of Violette Noziere obsessed the whole of France. Claude Chabrol, while recreating her story, confessed that he fell in love with her before understanding her. Nobody has been able to explain the fascination of this rather ordinary, working-class girl - but Isabelle Huppert conveys her extraordinary contradictions and charisma in a memorable performance.
Violette hates the stuffy, cramped flat where she lives with her parents. Every day she escapes to the Latin Quarter to live her own life. There she falls in love - which proves a fatal mistake.
