Is Edible Glitter Dissolving

Dujour Film: The Diabolical


The Diabolical, 1955 - Henri-Georges Clouzot

Int. Evening. Room apartment.

A women preparing to poison her husband.
few drops of sleeping pills in a bottle of alcohol.
The next trick: to drown in the bathtub once asleep. On
table, an empty glass and bottle trap.
Uncertain, the woman looks at her arms.
The husband finally enters the apartment. A baffle
household. Always
the bottle and glass on the table
symmetry: the same plane across the axis.
Man finally takes a drink to his conviction ...

Weapons latent threat objects as a method of suspense.

***

Inspiration Hitchcock's Psycho.
thematic resonance: the threat of water. The

Diaboliques: the bath for the drowning, the inertia of the pool where a corpse lies.
Psycho: shower fatal swamp coffin. Aka White Fang
