KC: Great work on the Chabrol links. I have been out of touch for a few weeks and your links were a good introduction to what I have missed. For some reason, last year I revisited most of the Chabrols on Netflix. And the gallery that you cited is wonderful. Stunning women and great actresses: especially Stephane Audran and Isabelle Huppert. Also, alas, but expected, the death of Kevin McCarthy. In my time our science fiction / fantasy / occult tastes were set by Richard Matheson and Jack Finney. And we waited for the filmed version of “Body Snatchers” and were not disappointed. Thanks. Gerald.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen nearly enough Chabrols--and the man I saw in that gallery motivated me to queue up some titles. How wonderful to be active and love your work your entire life!
