inally we have a look at Atom Egoyan’s eagerly awaited Chloe. It looks like a cross of several sexual classics churned out from Hollywood in the 90s. The film stars Julianne Moore and Liam Neeson. But the film centers on Amanda Seyfried who plays a sexy call girl hired by Moore to seduce her husband played by Liam Neeson.
The basic premise looks very familiar. But it is the execution that will matter in the end. Atom Egoyan is known for his films like The Sweet Hereafter and Exotica. But after these two films the critics have really not warmed up to his body work. It is probably the levels the director Egoyan had reached in his earlier films. But don’t underestimate the power of this visionary. Films like Adoration and Where the Truth Lies are still clever explorations done by the director.
In this film Chloe Moore’s character hires Chloe to seduce her husband to find out if he is cheating on her. But in turn Chloe becomes obsessed with the family and turns on them. But with the tightly rung cast it will be nice to see Amanda in the thick of things. The film is slated for a March 19th release.
