If you loved Philomena, try Les liaisons dangereuses
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Stephen Frears, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Philomena, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Les liaisons dangereuses is
18th century France, a lavish ballroom, a whispered promise. A marquise and a vicomte engage in a delicate game of seduction and revenge, with pawns to be used and discarded. Frears finds the rot in aristocratic elegance.
