Synopsis: The final film from director Alain Corneau, Love Crime pits the fiery
talents of Ludivine Sagnier and Oscar-nominee Kristin Scott Thomas
against each other in a deliciously twisted tale of office politics that
turn, literally, cut-throat. When Christine, a powerful executive
(Scott Thomas), brings on a naive young ingenue, Isabelle (Sagnier), as
her assistant, she delights in toying with her naivete 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 the scenery expertly and
his actors devour it. -- (Written by IFC Films)
