Synopsis:

Docteur Popaul, or Scoundrel in White is a black comedy by Claude Chabrol. It tells of the life and proper comeuppance of Dr. Paul Simay (Jean Paul Belmondo), an unusual sort of ladies' man. At his hospital, there is a bet to see who can seduce the most ugly women. Paul is confident he can win, because he already woos ugly women exclusively. He says he gets much better results from them. When he woos and finally marries Christine (Mia Farrow), buck-teeth, leg-braces and all, he eventually discovers that he has more than met his match.

Paul, nursed by his devoted wife following a car crash, remembers how, coveting his sister-in-law he had eliminated all her suitors and made her his mistress. His doctor informs him he is paralyzed and he determines on suicide.
