Cruel Intentions

Lacros' Les Liaisons Dangereuses comes to modern NYC aristocracy in the film Cruel Intentions. Though I can't say I recommend the film because of the content, there is something about it that is likable. Jetset romance and vengeance ...

Sarah Michelle Gellar's role as the villain was pretty good. I love how by the end Sebastian is turned into a hero. That made me laugh. Is the moral of the story that penitence reverses everything? I like the idea of it being a journal, but I think it would have been excellent to tell it from a journal, a sort of epistolary film - like the book. But ... dommage


6/10
