Bressonun filmlerindeki fransız taşrasi sakinliği ve kayitsizligini Hitchcock un gerilim ve mizahını harmanlayıp yeni dalganın duygusal yapısıyla filmi devam ettirip noktalıyor. Hikaye biraz yavan e kısıtlı, yönetmen bunu karakterlerin pek te normal olmayan kişilikleri, (iki ana karakterin gecmiste yasadigi tramvaylardan kaynaklı halleri ) karakterlerin birbirleriyle kucuk hinzirca oyunlariyla geri planda tutmaya çalışmış pek olmamış.

The audience may be hesitant to identify the butcher, a former soldier deeply disturbed by his wartime experiences, as the murderer, but Chabrol makes no attempt to proffer cheap thrills or twists. He treads a far bolder path of unresolved ambiguity, choosing not to share his protagonists' innermost motives or emotions but instead present their courtship naturalistically and leave the psychological evaluation up to the discerning viewer. Both leads are superb in their challenging roles.

I thought it was watchable at first, but rather standard with nothing spectacular standing out. Later on in the film, it starts to reveal itself as an exciting thriller after all that, although seemingly purposefully predictable, shows a sympathetic portrayal of the antagonist, yet at the same time these final scenes are quite chilling and creepily written.

Though Chabrol has been called the French Hitchcock, and the film is structured as a whodunnit suspense film, who did it doesn't really matter all that much. Indeed we pretty much know early on who did it, what's more fascinating is the central relationship and how it shifts and changes. Does our leading lady know? Is she attracted to the danger? Yes the final 15 minutes or so feature some very tense stuff but it is the psychology of the characters that makes this one fascinating.

6 Kasim 2012, Zevahir. Kaan'in evinde & Film, modernliği temsil eden bir öğretmen ile savaştan gelmiş, baba mesleğini devam ettiren ve babasına içten içe nefret duyan 'ontolojik olarak kasap' bir katilin aşk hikayesini anlatıyor. Desmeli, hakkinda uzun uzun dusunulmeli. Bence cok yetkin bir is. Hakkinda uzun bir yazi yazmayi dusunuyorum.

Very good characters and performances add greatly to this exploration of the orders but mainly the disorders of desire, individual as well as collective, prehistoric as well as modern.
