Alain Corneau passed away in August 2010, two days after his final film, Love Crime (Crime d'amour), opened in France and just before it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. I didn't get a chance to see it in Toronto that year, but finally had a chance to watch it last night, knowing I wanted to watch it before seeing Brian De Palma's remake, titled Passion, which will be playing the Venice Film Festival at the end of August. Starring Kristin Scott Thomas and Ludivine Sagnier, the story begins as the age-old tale of a mentor (Thomas) using the ingenue (Sagnier) for professional gain. While Thomas, as Christine, uses the accomplished work of Isabelle to rise to the top. Isabelle, upset with Christine's two-faced approach to their relationship, is struggling between the idea of remaining a loyal employee and the voice of her co-worker (Guillaume Marquet) in her ear,...

Brian De Palma, director of such classic films as Scarface, The Untouchables, and Dressed To Kill, is set to go behind the camera for the first time since 2007’s Redacted, with Passion, a remake of the recent French thriller, Love Crime.
Noomi Rapace, famous for her role as Lisbeth Salander in the original The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo films, is set to star as one of the two female leads, and her co-star on the upcoming Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (due out tomorrow), Rachel McAdams, is now in talks to join as the other female lead, Collider report.
The original film starred Kristin Scott Thomas and Ludivine Sagnier in the leads, and the trailer (which you can watch below) looks pretty intriguing, making the prospect of an English language remake under the direction of De Palma, with Rapace and McAdams in the leads, pretty damn interesting too.

Title: Love Crime Director: Alain Corneau Starring: Ludivine Sagnier, Kristin Scott Thomas, Patrick Mille, Guillaume Marquet Interpersonal chess matches always provide audiences with ample amounts of intrigue no matter what the backdrop. Love Crime is a 104 minute French film that has three characters relying on their resources and wits to bury each other. Naturally this all gets going due to some sort of crime of passion scenario based off jealously. Isabelle (Ludivine Sagnier) is a top executive at a worldwide corporation in Paris, France. She loyally attends to the refined & charming CEO, Christine (Kristin Scott Thomas). This is Isabelle’s life and Christine has been nothing short than a...

Title: Love Crime Directed By: Alain Corneau Written By: Alain Corneau, Nathalie Carter Cast: Ludivine Sagnier, Kristin Scott Thomas, Patrick Mille, Guillaume Marquet Screened at: Review 2, NYC, 8/16/11 Opens: September 2, 2011 Director Alain Corneau and co-scripter Nathalie Carter are dangerous people. Watch out. Their intricately plotted tale of love and skullduggery shows them to be capable of the perfect crime. Though Mr. Corneau died recently, I would guess that Nathalie Carter could likely work out a robbery, a kidnapping, a murder and assuredly get away with these felonies. That’s how credible and involving is this complex tale of love, sex, envy, and humiliation—all the things that make office...

What does it mean to be a mentor to someone? What does it mean to have a mentor? This type of relationship can become a precarious balance with the mentor not wanting to help the person they are guiding to become more successful than themselves while the person being mentored could worry that, in becoming more successful, they appear ungrateful. Love Crime explores this volatile relationship between Isabelle (Ludivine Sagnier) and her mentor, Christine (Kristin Scott Thomas).
