Michel Piccoli is irresistibly slimy in the
role of a conniving attorney.
Making the acquaintance of two lovely sisters (Romy Schneider
and Andrea Ferreol), Piccoli seduces them both.
He then invites the sisters into his latest scam:
marrying and murdering gullible men and women, then cheating
their insurance companies.
The noirish intrigues of Infernal Trio are all the more remarkable
in that they are based on a true story.
It shouldn't be too surprising to first-year French students
that the original title of this French/Italian melodrama was
Le Trio Infernal.
