Bitter Moon
This black comedy/drama/thriller is one of Polanski’s deepest and darkest superbly layered films. Based on the novel "Lunes de Fiel" by Pascal Bruckner, it takes place on an ocean liner. Married couples: Oscar (Peter Coyote), a wheelchair-bound author, and the alluring but very dangerous Mimi (Emmanuelle Seigner) meet Nigel (Hugh Grant) and Fiona (Kristin Scott Thomas), two Continentals on their second honeymoon. Their destinies become entangled as they end up holding each other hostage in a constantly shifting balance of power. It's a beautiful and disturbing display of interpersonal relationships and desires that run the gamut to the extreme, as Polanski has been known to do. Moving, creepy, and very sexual, Seigner (Polanski's wife) and Coyote will leave you with characters you won't soon forget.
