Jeremy Irons and Juliette Binoche are lovers locked in the grip of sexual obsession. An obsession so strong it drinks passion, breathes fire, and consumes everything and everyone it touches. Director Louis Malle peels back the layers of one family’s tragedy to reveal a middle-aged man (Irons) and his son’s fiancee (Binoche) entangled in an intensely erotic affair that is as irresistible as it is destructive. Electrifying performances by Irons, Binoche, and Miranda Richardson as Irons’ tortured wife, highlight this riveting portrait of an ordinary man, transformed by desire and willing to pay any price for his passion.
