SCFZ poll: Henri-Georges Clouzot

[Monsieur Arkadin]

Seen 4 (or 5 if we're counting the rushes from Inferno) But I'll go with 4.

Wages of Fear
La Prisonière

Inferno is definitely a fun "what if" and I quite like the Chabrol version.

[MrCarmady]

Watched Le corbeau which was great fun - cynical, funny, and twisted. Doesn't supplant The Wages of Fear as my #1 but would love to watch another one this week before you tally.

[Mauries]

Saw 3 and 'Henri-Georges Clouzot's Inferno' by Bromberg & Medrea. Will go for

Woman in Chains [La prisonnière]

[Monsieur Arkadin]

I watched La Prisoniere. Really great actually. I’m gonna edit my list to bump off Diabolique.

would love to watch another one this week before you tally.

that's cool, i'm not feeling too enthusiastic about tabulating any more polling just now, so i'll just be leaving the four active director polls open for a few more days at least, and won't be starting anything new until i feel like it, maybe friday or early next week

1. Diabolique
2. The Wages of Fear

I have seen 5 movies directed by Clouzot.

i'll probably tally all the open director polls tomorrow (later in the day, in 15+ hours), but if there are still late ballots or edits that come in shortly afterwards, i'll accommodate them. then i'll work out who is nominating our next director and start up the next one.
