Also watch it as a suspense film, which is worse than Clouzet's own Diabolique. The history and social environment are also written in the small and the big way, which is also inferior to Haneke's White Ribbon.
The camera loves Dr. Germaine too much. In fact, I write more about how other despicable little characters relish scandals or become more powerful behind the protagonist.
