Synopsis

In an isolated mansion in 1950s France, a family is gathered for the holiday season. But the patriarch is found murdered, and the killer can only be one of the eight women closest to him. The telephone line has been cut, the car won’t start, and a heavy snowfall keeps the women confined together.

Our take

Murder, French-style! François Ozon, a master of dark character studies like Swimming Pool, lightened up for this acclaimed musical comedy-mystery that’s every bit as delicious as it sounds. The cast—wall-to-wall French royalty—includes Catherine Deneuve, Isabelle Huppert, and Fanny Ardant!
