Les Cousins is a 1959 French New Wave drama film directed by Claude Chabrol. It tells a story about two cousins, the decadent Paul, played by Jean-Claude Brialy, and the naïve Charles, played by Gérard Blain. The film won the Golden Bear at the 9th Berlin International Film Festival.

Production

Chabrol had planned for The Cousins to be his first film, but the high production costs ($160,000) made him decide to postpone the project and make the less-expensive Le Beau Serge first. The two films featured the same lead actors—Gérard Blain and Jean-Claude Brialy—but many aspects of their characters and their function within the plot were reversed (for example, Brialy now played the "insider", and Blain the "outsider").
