Comedy of Power

French master Claude Chabrol always delivers great character studies and he always excels when he collaborates with the amazing Isabelle Huppert who gives another complex and nuanced performance as a powerful magistrate that tries to fight political and corporate corruption. Chabrol cleverly shows the irony of the power in Western European countries that allows corruption for their greater benefit and applies it only to set examples for the public and media to keep appearances.
