I don't think the performances are bad: they're the same flat, inscrutable performances given in some of Chabrol's other work in this period, and the flatness and inscrutability are clearly intentional. I suppose the acting style is intended to reflect bourgeois restraint and to leave the audience with the task of figuring out what, if anything, is going on inside these people. 11 years 8 months ago -

Some terrible performances here; the actors seem bored, but the story is interesting. 12 years 3 months ago
