Crime d'amour (2010)


Ruthless executive Christine brings on Isabelle as her assistant, and she takes delight in toying with the young woman's innocence. But when the protégé's ideas become tempting enough for Christine to pass on as her own, she underestimates Isabelle's ambition and cunning -- and the ground is set for all out war.

Tightly directed with an excellent cast, this is a sharp (and twisted) crime thriller dealing with corporate ambitions and skulduggery and personal revenge.

Maltin***1/2: "Superbly acted and incisively written tale of office politics and the ruthless corporate mind-set turns into a twisty suspense thriller that's all the more chilling because of its coolly detached style."
