Say hello to stiletto-heeled intrigue, backstabbing humor and chic attitude when a starry cast of La-La Land schemers vie for a dead man's millions in this erotic suspense thriller from Roland Joffe, director of The Killing Fields and The Mission.
This wry social thriller follows a cast of interlocking players as each schemes to inherit a $4 million insurance policy. At the center of the overlapping relationships and betrayals is one woman—the wife to one brother and the mistress to another—and no one's ever been so good at being so bad.
Starring Emmy-winner and Golden Globe-nominee Patricia Arquette (TV's Medium, True Romance), Dermot Mulroney (Must Love Dogs, My Best Friend's Wedding), Emmy-winner and Golden Globe-nominee Ellen DeGeneres (Finding Nemo, TV's Ellen), Emmy and Golden Globe-winner Mary-Louise Parker (TV's Weeds, Red Dragon) and Emmy-nominee and Golden Globe-winner Don Johnson (Tin Cup, TV's Nash Bridges).
