Chabrol was a contemporary of Jean-Luc Goddard and François Truffaut, who began the movement known as the French New Wave cinema in the 50’s,  and over his career made over 60 films and episodes for TV shows.Among thos films he directed were Cop au Vin, Madame Bovary, La Femme infidèle, The Flower Of Evil, and most recently Bellamy.
