**Ends Thursday, November 20th**

"Terrific, an acidic high comedy of amorous secrets." - Michael Phillips, CHICAGO TRIBUNE

"A deliciously dry, dark comedy ... Goes against the grain of the normal thriller." - Dennis Dermody, PAPER

"An erotically charged, beautifully directed story...Mr. Chabrol has you firmly by the throat." - Manohla Dargis, THE NEW YORK TIMES

The French master of suspense Claude Chabrol (LES BICHES, THE FLOWER OF EVIL) returns with the razor-sharp, darkly seductive, A GIRL CUT IN TWO.
Gabrielle Deneige (Ludivine Sagnier of SWIMMING POOL) is an independent, ambitious TV weather girl torn between her love of a distinguished author several decades her senior (Francois Berleand), and the attentions of a headstrong, potentially unstable young suitor (Benoit Magimel). An unspoken past between the two men heightens tensions, and though she's initially certain of her love for one them, the see-saw demands and whims of both men keep confusing - and darkening - matters. Before long she's encountering emotional and societal forces well beyond her control, inexorably leading to a shocking clash of violence and passion.
Inspired by the sensational Gilded Age murder of Madison Square Garden architect Stanford White, A GIRL CUT IN TWO is trademark Chabrol: fiendishly entertaining and impossible to shake.
