Day 176: 8 Women


In a grand house in France a man is killed and 8 women are the suspects. They can't escape the house (phone line is cut, car won't start) and so interrogate each other and uncover clues as to what might have happened. Each woman has something to hide and they are all suspicious of each other.

Such a campy dramarama film, I loved it. Everyone is over the top and there's spontaneous singing throughout. I can see how it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea but I personally loved it. The story is interesting and I liked that each woman had a story of their own. They all live together and they all manage to keep such amazing secrets. But at the same time, all their relationships are fraught and aggressive. They're all quick to point the finger.

8/10
