Henri-Georges Clouzot's Inferno 2009

Often compared to Hitchcock, French auteur Henri-Georges Clouzot is known for meticulous, clockwork thrillers such as Diabolique and The Wages Of Fear. In 1964, Clouzot attempted a psychedelic tour de force with L'Enfer, starring the sexy Austrian starlet Romy Schneider. But the production itself soon became a nightmare, and the film was abandoned. Four decades later, Clouzot's widow gives the world its first glimpse of the original raw footage - and with it, the chance to reconstruct the unfinished work of a genius.
