The twisted games people play…
Suitcase in tow, Fred (Stanley Tucci) arrives at the doorstep of his beautiful mistress, Velvet (Alice Eve) after four years apart, claiming to have finally left his wife. But when she rejects his attempts to rekindle their romance, his persistence evolves into obsession – and a dark history between the former lovers comes into focus.
An impressively sustained two-hander with Tucci as the manic, ego-crushed older man and Eve as the dazzling ingénue. Their nuanced performances, paired with LaBute’s dialogue, create an intriguing drama with a stunning finale.
