New Trailer For Brian De Palma’s ‘Passion’ Starring Rachel McAdams & Noomi Rapace
Entertainment One has released a new trailer for Brian De Palma’s erotic thriller Passion starring Rachel McAdams & Noomi Rapace. A remake of the French film Love Crime, the story revolves around a young businesswomen (Rapace) who plots murderous revenge after her boss and mentor (McAdams) steals her idea. I skipped this one last year at TIFF after hearing it was horrid but the trailer does a nice job of painting a compelling story full of betrayal, murder, sex, and money. And it stars a grown up Regina George. The film is scheduled for release August 30.
Passion tells the story of a deadly power struggle between two women in the dog-eat-dog world of international business. Christine possesses the natural elegance and casual ease associated with one who has a healthy relationship with money and power. Innocent, lovely and easily exploited, her admiring protégé, Isabelle, is full of cutting-edge ideas that Christine has no qualms about stealing. They’re on the same team, after all… But when Isabelle falls into bed with one of Christine’s lovers, war breaks out.
