...Amante Anglaise concerns a particularly squalid and brutal murder in a small provincial town: Claire Lannes kills her middleaged, deaf-mute cousin for no apparent reason, hacks up the body in a cellar and dumps the pieces from a railway bridge onto various passing trains. If there is one thing Madame Duras likes, it is a nice crime of passion, the bloodier the better.
