France 2002 - Thriller/Crime — 110 min — Directed by Brian De Palma
Cast: Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, Antonio Banderas, Peter Coyote, Rie Rasmussen
Con artist/thief Laure Ash helps pull off a diamond robbery in Cannes during the film festival. She double-crosses her partners and makes off with the diamonds to Paris, and then leaves the country. Seven years later, she re-surfaces as the wife of the new American ambassador to France where a photographer, takes her picture which sets the stage for a motion of events.
This movie has one of the hottest lesbian scenes ever in a regular movie, between models-turned-actresses Rie Rasmussen and Rebecca Romijn. Rebecca also does one damn hot dance/strip scene that will make a bulge in your pants - unless you're gay. Storywise it's a bit too haphazard at times, and you never get the whole picture. You're kept on your toes, guessing what's gonna happen and why somethings do happen. It works fine, but at times you really feel that there need to be some justification to some events. Well, you get it close to the end, as most of the film has happened the Dallas way - turns out Rebecca lying naked in a bathtub has dreamt it all. But when she awakes, the events she dreamt of, start happening, so she alters it. If you a decent crime/heist story, this is a no-brainer to watch. If you also like naked hot women - do yourself a service and watch this! Rebecca goes full frontal, which in itself should be enough!
My Rating: 7 / 10
