Within the room, they live, sleep, argue and play out their erotically charged games without heed to the real world going on around them. However, when outsiders intrude into their intensely private realm, the scene is set for tragedy.A relatively unknown filmmaker at the time, Melville had impressed Cocteau with his striking first feature, the Occupation drama Le Silence de la mer (1947), and here he brings a cool, lucid eye to Jean Cocteau s claustrophobic, hothouse novel. Les Enfants terribles is evidence of the tension between these two dramatically different filmmakers, yet together they have created a hauntingly atmospheric film.Spawning several imitations and most recently an inspiration for Bertolucci's The Dreamers (2003), Les Enfants terribles is dominated by a performance of fierce intensity by Nicole Stephane as the scheming heroine Elisabeth, and music by Bach and Vivaldi forms the film's provocative, impassioned score.DVD extrasFeature commentary by novelist and critic Gilbert AdairInterview with actress Nicole StephaneOriginal posterDirector, writer and cast biographiesFrance | 1950 | black & white | French language with English subtitles | 102 minutes | Ratio 1.33:1 | Region 2 DVD
