Josee Dayan's latest adaptation of Choderlos de Laclos' classic tale of seduction, betrayal and revenge features an all-star cast including Catherine Deneuve, Rupert Everett, Nastassja Kinski and Leelee Sobieski, and is set in the world of 1960s Parisian high society.
The beautiful Madame de Merteuil (Deneuve) seeks vengeance when her ex-lover tells her that he is now engaged to her young goddaughter, Cecile (Sobieski). She turns to her partner-in-crime, Valmont (Everett), famous for his reputation as a Don Juan to seduce Cecile. Valmont gets sidetracked when he goes to visit his aunt and falls for Madame Tourvel (Kinski), a virtuous, married woman who knows of his womanizing ways, but that only makes the challenge more exciting to Valmont. Together, Madame de Merteuil and Valmont make a dangerous team and they will stop at nothing when it comes to matters of the heart.
