Le Boucher/The Butcher
1970, Chabrol, Fr
1st time; big screen
Fresh from the Indo-china war, an ex-soldier returns to provincial France and assumes responsibility of his father's butchery, where he falls for the village school's headmistress...
An absorbing, clever film on the transferrance of guilt; a linear, simple narrative offers complex, noirish undertones about human desire and selfish want, with endless references to Hitchcock.

Absolute masterpiece; see it now.
