Synopsis:
Julie Wormser (stunningly played by Romy Schneider) is an icy wife who plots with her lover, writer and neighbour, Jeff Marie, to get rid of her alcoholic, impotent husband (Rod Steiger) while vacationing in St. Tropez. Fascinatingly ironic and ambiguous with a wonderfully convoluted plot, ever-changing relationships and intriguing minor characters.

A very fine film, however , this DVD is not the way to watch it - astonishing awful, ancient transfer. VHS looking. Utterly wretched quality.

Delicious - Innocents with Dirty Hands review by sb

Spoiler Alert

FILM & REVIEW Aka Innocents with Dirty Hands - Chabrol’s deliciously contrived whodunnit. Schneider plays Julie an icy Hitchcickian blonde married to the much older but very rich Louis (Stieger.) He drinks himself into oblivion every night and she begins an affair with the younger handsome Jeff and they soon decide to bump off the old man. Jeff makes himself scarce while the police investigate what is at first a missing persons case then they assume murder. But….when Julie discovers that Louis has emptied all his bank accounts, the safety deposit box and put the house up for sale and when the lovers car is discovered after a crash but no body she begins to suspect she is the one being set up. The rest of the film does require a certain suspension of disbelief as Chabrol piles on the red herrings but it’s so well done that if you just roll with it then much fun is to be had. Schneider is just superb in the role and add in a couple of avuncular coppers and a comedy lawyer then it’s well worth sticking with - 4/5
