Apartment

This French film--a rich, haunting, and romantic mystery starring the always electric couple Monica Bellucci (IRREVERSIBLE) and Vincent Cassel (OCEANS TWELVE)--is the original upon which the American remake, WICKER PARK, was based. Inveterate ladies' man Max (Cassel) has just decided to settle down with his fiancée (Sandrine Kiberlain, APRES VOUS), when he catches a glimpse of his lost love, Lisa (Bellucci). Trailing her to her apartment, he meets Alice (Romane Bohringer), a woman who bears a strange resemblance to Lisa and with whom Max also becomes involved. The tale unfolds in fragments that draw the viewer toward a surprising, subtle dénouement.
