A screenplay which borrows a lot ,once again,once more,from Clouzot's "Les Diaboliques ".
The eternal triangle is present: the husband ,the wife and the lady's lover.
Juliette (Arielle Domsbale) and her husband spends their weekend in their little house in the middle of the woods;the hubby goes fishing in the lake while his wife stays at "home" : it's only in her second appearance that we realize she is in a wheelchair;thus,she eats fish at every meat -which must be monotonous- and her only distraction is her devoted neighbor's (comic actress Monique Tarbès ,too rare in the films)visits.
Sick and tired of this life which leads her to nowhere,Juliette plans her spouse's murder with her lover;the plot is close to that of "Les Diaboliques" as I wrote above ,they think they have got it all planned but.....
Will he still love me tomorrow? ;after all,I'm a disabled,confined to a wheelchair....
And neighbors are sometimes too helpful.
PROLOGUE: Claude Chabrol goes for a stroll in the forest where he picks mushrooms ,death caps : a bite and you die in agony!Don't say you haven't been warned!
