The Bride Wore Black (La mariée était en noir) by François Truffaut (1968, 107 min.). In a conscious homage to Alfred Hitchcock with dashes of the famous French New Wave style, legendary actress Jeanne Moreau stars as Julie Kocher, a woman whose fiancé is murdered by five men on their wedding day. Seeking revenge, she hunts them down one by one, as her pursuit is ominously punctuated with a musical score written by Bernard Herrmann (Psycho). “The Bride Wore Black is well worth rediscovering” (Salon).
