When Christine, a powerful executive (Scott Thomas), brings on a naive young ingénue, Isabelle (Sagnier), as her assistant, she delights in toying with her naïveté and teaching her hard lessons in a ruthless professional philosophy. But when the protege’s ideas become tempting enough for Christine to pass one as her own, she underestimates Isabelle’s ambition and cunning– and the ground is set for all out war. In this devilish, propulsive thriller, Corneau sets up a the scenery expertly and his actors devour it. directed by: Alain Corneau starring: Ludivine Sagnier, Kristin Scott Thomas, Patrick Mille, Guillaume Marquet, Gérald Laroche 2010 / 106 min / 1.85:1 / English, French DTS-HD MA 5.1 Additional info: Region A Blu-ray New commentary by film critic Travis Woods New video essay by film historian Alexandra Heller-Nicholas Booklet with new writing by film critic Katie Rife English subtitles
