Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for people who like their stories with a little danger and anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead. Plenty of moral grey areas to chew on. Shelve it next to The Talented Mr. Ripley or Nightmare Alley.
The mood
Tense, dark and gritty.
The pace
Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 40 min.
What might put you off
  • Rated R: expect sex.
  • Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.

A woman trapped in a boring marriage begins an affair with a handsome man who seems able to read her mind. She doesn't know that he has broken into her house and read her diaries, where she has recorded her deepest thoughts and fantasies.
