Femme Fatale
A $10-million diamond ripoff set against the Cannes Film Festival, a stolen identity, a new life married to a wealthy U.S. diplomat. Laure Ash has risked big and won big. But then a tabloid shutterbug snaps her picture in Paris. Suddenly, enemies from Laure's secret past know who and where she is. And they all want their share of the diamond heist. Or her life. Or both. A dazzling return to form for director Brian De Palma who shows again why he's a master of the erotic thriller with this edgy mind-blower that works both as a gripping twist-upon-twist stunner and as an eye-opening display of virtuoso filmmaking. Rebecca Romijn-Stamos portrays the fatal femme, a "bad girl" by her own admission...and about to get worse as she ensnares the photog (Antonio Banderas) in her lurid web of self-preservation. Superbly crafted, this is a film that reveals further layers upon repeat viewing.
