This
short made for cable TV thriller
aims for a sultry almost Basic
Instinct type feel and
occasionally almost pulls it off
despite an opening title
sequence that practically gives
away the whole plot.
Melanie
Griffith headlines as middle
aged Sara living in France with
her much younger boyfriend Jack
and working as a courier for a
very dodgy black marketeer
George (a slimy Art Malik),
Sara’s problems really start
when a rare coin she is
delivering is stolen and while
she is away Jack begins an
affair with the much younger
Jenny (Rachel Leigh Cook) who
works in a jewellery shop, this
sets in motion a whole chain of
treacherous events of cross and
double cross.
Quite
convoluted and generally pretty
entertaining and as always with
this type of movie there are
plenty of twists along the way.
