Elevator to the Gallows
The feature-film introduction of famed director Louis Malle can be an interesting, modern film noir with the classic theme of fans plotting to kill your husband and make it appear to be suicide (similar to The Postman Always Rings Twice). Jeanne Moreau gives an incredible efficiency, perverse but naive, as she leads her fan right down a trail that could lead to doom for each of these.
