Normally, I’m not that into the other woman kinds of thrillers (think “Obsessed,” otherwise known as the movie where Beyonce headbutts a bitch). But with a cast this caliber and Egoyan’s penchant for dark, thoughtful material, I’m sold. Granted, the aforementioned very special naked time does help.
And, as I also mentioned before, I’m excited about the chance to see Amanda be bad – as in “you’ve hired me to seduce your husband to catch him in an affair and report back on each encounter in increasingly graphic detail while I also seemingly get it on with you”-bad.
Even though I have a sneaking suspicion this will all end very badly, it’s going to be a heck of a ride getting there.
WOOO!! ^_^
ReplyDeleteA ride? For sure. I'm excited. :P
ReplyDeleteYes Please! I love it when seemingly "good" girls go bad!
ReplyDeleteWow. Looks good!
ReplyDeleteI really respect Atom Egoyan, and love the ladies, but this movie looks SO bad!
ReplyDeleteHope I'm wrong
Hmm well judging by the trailer I'm guessing Shannon this isn't going to stack up too well against Nathalie - but then lovely as Ms Moore is that film did have the huge advantage of Fanny Ardent in the JM role...
ReplyDeletei just read the title of this post in my rss and thought "why yes please ms snarker"
ReplyDeleteThis is a remake of Natalie?
ReplyDeleteI don't think anything could compare with Fanny Ardant and Emmanuelle Beart looking at each other.
(I mean, the rest is excellent, but I could gladly watch them just look at each other for quite some time.)
The story reminds me of Nathalie movie with Fanny Ardant.. I doubt that JM would do better in this part.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to compare to the film "Nathalie" : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_fWYgv133U
ReplyDelete;-)
I don't know...I like Julianne Moore, but she's 25 years older than Amanda and that just creeps me out (they actually share the same birthday, Dec 3rd). I don't have a problem with "real life" couples with that age difference (heck, my parents were 17 yrs apart), but my libido doesn't get fired up about seeing it in a sex scene.
ReplyDeleteWhy a remake? Can it stand up to "Nathalie"?
ReplyDeleteFanny Ardant, Emmanuelle Béart, Gérard Depardieu

Early word is not good, but I'm going to watch this movie anyway.
ReplyDeleteYeah that just can't end well.

ReplyDeleteThis remake looked like being done for international, Nathalie won an award but is was the european film awards in 2001.
