Diaboliques (1955)
Henri-Georges Clouzot has his tried-and-tested style, which he remains faithful to today. The cast is also extremely convincing in their roles. These days, new movies that come to cinema's, does not have 'something' that is hidden in this movie. Diaboliques (1955) without doubt has excellent dialogoues. This movie has destroyed my mind and nothing will happen after that. That movie sticks out in my mind with how good it was. Maybe because I just didn't expect it. You can watch it online here on this website and add your own subtitles if you are not native english speaker.
