Le Corbeau DVD   Studio Canal

French crime drama co-written and directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot.
A wave of hysteria sweeps the small provincial town of St Robin when a series of poison-pen letters signed 'Le Corbeau' appear denouncing several prominent members of society.
Starting with the village doctor, the slow sinister trickle of letters soon becomes a flood and no one is safe from the malicious accusations, which include abortion and drug addiction.
Beneath the town's respectful and calm surface lurks a darker side in which everyone is a suspect.
With the townspeople afraid to accuse each other for fear of being accused themselves, suspicion and hatred soon reach dangerous levels.
