Red Lights

Aroview: A married couple bicker in a holiday traffic-jam, fueled by the husband's drunken irritability and his wife's haughty disregard, leading them into intense peril on the menacing French backroads.

Adapted from a novel by the famed crime-writer Georges Simenon, this psychological spellbinder matches dark visuals and a paranoid atmosphere to Darroussin's gripping portrayal of status anxiety-driven distress. Perhaps superior to any recent film of its type, this crosses existential territory not often seen since the days of Hitchcock or Clouzet.
