True friendship and fake love

A forgotten French noirish crime movie. Wicked, delusive and hopeless are the adjective that depict « Les Louves » the best in my opinion. After the accidental death of his friend Bernard with whom he escaped jail, Gervais steals his identity and meets Hélène, a woman who corresponded with Bernard but who never got to meet him, as well as her sister Agnès. Manipulation and deaths will follow. The plot has a really good potential but it felt like the climax could have been more intense for this one. The voluntarily slow pace is not a problem since it directly contributes to its confined atmosphere, with the trap closing on the prey little by little... The great performances from Micheline Presle and François Périer should also be highlighted. I would describe this movie as a lesser-known cousin of "Les Diaboliques", which was actually written by the same duo : Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac.
