If you loved Desperate Measures, try Before and After

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Barbet Schroeder, and they both carry the paranoid mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Desperate Measures, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

paranoid

What Before and After is

Snowflakes on a small town street winter morning a phone rings. A family's life shattered by accusation. Barbet Schroeder directs a tense drama.
