- Synopsis:
- In Claude Chabrol's superior thriller Ludivine Sagnier plays 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 (Benolt Magimel). An unspoken past between the two men heightens tensions, and though she's initially certain of her love for one of 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.

Reviews (1) of The Girl Cut in Two
well quite good but not classic chabrol - The Girl Cut in Two review by pete b
good casting, good performances, but didn't quite gel imho. plotlines with vivacious attractive young women falling for much older chap always a bit seedy, all too often feels like wish-fulfillment on the part of ageing (male) directors! and the older male in this filmis particularly unappetising and lacking in charisma or indeed anything which i don't feel gives the film creditability. it was sort of okay but if i could give it 2 and a half i would, and i certainly wouldn't want to see it twice.
