About The Summer People
Two retirees decide to extend their vacation beyond the usual date, near a lake where they own a villa. From that moment on, everything becomes hostile: the butcher stops delivering meat, there is no milk, their electricity is cut off, and their car is sabotaged. Don't we want to show them that when your time is up, on vacation or in life, it's not a good idea to linger and that you have to disappear?
Directed by Claude Chabrol, The Summer People leans on a strong ensemble — Madeleine Ozeray, François Vibert, Dieter Augustin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1974.
