A doctor hires an escort to seduce her husband, whom she suspects of cheating, though unforeseen events put the family in danger.
When Nathalie became Chloe.
A remake of 2003 French film Nathalie, Chloe is directed by Atom Egoyan and it stars Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson, Amanda Seyfried and Max Thieriot. Story has Moore as a successful doctor who suspects her husband is being unfaithful with his younger students. Hiring a prostitute to pose as a student and catch him in the act, it sets in wheels the motions of untapped passions and deadly emotions.
It's a bit Hitchcock lite in truth, but the strength of the cast list always keeps the story interesting. The key turns in the plot are to be taken with a pinch of salt, but Egoyan and his team keep things ethereal as the tech credits are splendidly mounted. A safe and solid erotic thriller, even if it's more low-rent than high-grade. 6/10
Well shot erotic-thriller by Atom Egoyan featuring three good performances from Julianne Moore, Amanda Seyfried (both sharing a steamy sex scene for a mainstream film) and Liam Neeson. Also has a tragic element with Seyfried's character. This is one I've had in my collection for a while but never got around to watching. 3.5/5
