Masks
France's master of stylish and witty suspense presents his delightfully dark and hauntingly humorous game of cat and mouse
Directed by Claude Chabrol
Produced by Films A2, mk2 Films
A stylish, darkly witty cat-and-mouse thriller built on deception and unreliable surfaces, where nothing and no one are quite what they seem.
In this deadly game of cat and mouse, Roland Wolf is writing a book on the life of game show host Christian Legagneur--or is he?
