| | BBC - BBC Four Cinema - The Woman Next Door |
 | | One of François Truffaut's later, lesser-known films, The Woman Next Door pursues several themes that the esteemed French director favoured throughout his career, namely adultery, obsession, amour fou and the ever-thrilling crime passionnel. |
 | | Several years after the pair split from an intense and all-consuming relationship, they are reunited - by chance or by coincidence - in the provinces, as the newly married Mathilde moves into the house next door to Bernard, his wife Arlette and their young son. |
 | | As its title suggests, The Woman Next Door deals with well-worn character types (the jilted lover, the femme fatale and the lonely cuckold to name three). |
