Synopsis

A drunken, self-destructive woman called Betty wanders into a Parisian bar where she meets middle-aged alcoholic Laure. Laure decides to take care of Betty. Recovering in a hotel room, Betty begins to recount to Laure the story of her bourgeois life and her unhappy and unfaithful marriage.

MUBI's take

Famed purveyors of human neuroses, beloved auteur Claude Chabrol and writer Georges Simenon are a match made in heaven, as shown in this heady tale of bourgeois malaise. Playing glamorous confidante to Marie Trintignant’s fallen heroine, an icy Stéphane Audran embodies a murkier side of femininity.
