Les Biches Summary Directed By Claude Chabrol, Les Biches Is A Landmark In Film History: Its Theme Of Bisexuality And Upper-class Decadence Is Surpassed Only By Its Cool Precision Of Cinematic Style And Exceptionally Subtle Performances. Socialite Frederique (stephane Audran) Encounters Young Student Why (jacqueline Sassard) On The Streets Of Paris, Seduces Her And Whisks Her Off To Spend Winter With The Chic Crowd Of St. Tropez. When Architect Paul (jean Louis Trintignant) Meets Why, He Too Charms Her And Comes Between The Two Lovers. Frederiqe Then Seduces Paul Out Of Jealousy, But Finds Herself Feeling Real Love. Paul And Frederique Invite Why To Live Together With Them, Resulting In A Ménage A Trios Beset By Jealousy, Madness, And Ultimately, Murder.

A high point from the middle career of French New Wave original Claude Chabrol, Les Biches is one of the director's tales of complicated, intertwined fates leading to horrifying ends. Chabrol's then-wife, Stephane Audran, plays a rich bisexual who picks up an impoverished young woman (Jacqueline Sassard) and takes her to her home in St. Tropez. There, much to her hostess's consternation, the visitor strikes up a romance with a handsome architect (Jean-Louis Trintignant), only to find that Audran's character is involved with him as well. The overlapping relationships grow full of rich mystery and dark possibility as the unwieldy situation begins to beg for a resolution. A study of class, desire, and compulsion, Les Biches has the hallmarks of Chabrol's streak of fascination with operatic fatalism. --Tom Keogh
