About
Cul-de-sac

Entertaining Polanski flick with some interesting characters. The inert pansy as portrayed by Donald Pleasence, the brutish Lionel Stander and starlet Françoise Dorleac as the bored girl who married too early. It's a black comedy with an eerie setting. I was reminded of the John Huston flick 'Key Largo' - whose tagline 'A hurricane swells outside but it's nothing compared with the storm within' is interchangeable.
