Erotic thrills are assured in Brian de Palma’s (‘Carrie’) upcoming thriller ‘Passion’. Based on the French movie ‘Crime d’amour’, from Alain Corneau and Natalie Carter, IFC Films are set to roll out ‘Passion’ onto VOD from 1 August and follow up with a limited theatrical release on 30 August. And if you’re in two minds as to whether you want to check out this latest offering from De Palma perhaps a double dose of on-screen hotness in the form of Rachel McAdams -below (‘Mean Girls’) and Noomi Rapace (‘Prometheus’) will change your mind. Or indeed the fact that the movie will contain some pleasingly risque scenes between the two beauties. Paul Anderson (‘A Lonely Place to Die’), Karoline Herfurth (‘Errors of the Human Body’) and Rainer Bock also star.
“When Christine, a powerful executive, brings on a naive young ingénue, Isabelle, as her assistant, she delights in toying with her naivete and teaching her hard lessons in a ruthless professional philosophy. But when the protege’s ideas become tempting enough for Christine to pass one as her own, she underestimates Isabelle’s ambition and cunning– and the ground is set for all out war. In this devilish, propulsive thriller, Corneau sets up a the scenery expertly and his actors devour it.”
