| Plot |
Isabelle Huppert gives a stellar performance in Claude Chabrol's thriller inspired by the Elf Affair, a true story of high-level corporate corruption. Jeanne Charmant Killman (Huppert), a tenacious magistrate known as "the piranha," pursues white collar criminals with their hands in public pockets. After locking up an embezzling CEO, she pushes the limits of her power even further and winds up caught in a dangerous game of threats and intimidation.
Reviews:
3 1/2 STARS "A crisp, ingenious thriller.... Claude Chabrol and Isabelle Huppert are a match made in cinema heaven." -Michael Wilmington, The Chicago Tribune
"A sensational performance by Isabelle Huppert." -Stephen Holden, The New York Times
3 STARS - "The peerless Claude Chabrol marked his half-century in cinema with this characteristically acerbic swipe at bourgeois ethics, in which Isabelle Huppert excels." -Patrick Peters, Empire Film
"A smooth, perceptive thriller tinged with suave Gallic cynicism and resigned anger." -The Guardian, London
"Chabrol offers an elegant vignette of judicial-political chicanery, while Huppert, as brilliant lawyer Jeanne, combines two of her favourite registers, coolly commanding and caustically playful." -Jonathan Romney, Sight & Sound
