There?s a cracker of a psychological thriller in Love Crime: imagine the cutthroat dog-eat-dog world of corporate-ladder-scaling by way of Hitchcock at his most wry and wicked and that?s how some of the better moments in the film play like. But those are too few and far between and late writer/director Alain Corneau?s execution is so staid and stuffy there?s barely any room to delight in its potentially devious pleasures or forgive the implausibility of its increasingly strained plotting.
The third act in particular featuring a protracted police investigation and prison sequence sputters with heavily telegraphed predictability when it should essentially knock us out. It doesn?t help that Corneau?s visual sense is a tad misguided: the use of black-and-white flashbacks is clunky (B&W = past!!) while the bleary digital video lensing ? which works fine for the banal minimalism of office interiors ? makes the film?s thriller portions look pretty sloppy.
Neither of the performances from the two leads are what you?d call “nuanced” but a few sparks are to be had from their overwrought portrayal of the master/protégé-dynamic-gone-wrong. Kirstin Scott-Thomas does her frosty best as Christine the ruthless company head who manipulates her employees with the cold glee of a sadist yanking the wings off a fly while Ludivine Sagnier (Swimming Pool) gets the more substantial part relishing in her character?s descent from an immaculately presented up-and-coming exec to a jittery near-catatonic pill-poppin? mess trying to grasp what?s her left of her dignity.
A compact and engrossing thriller that wobbles a little but never enough to come off the rails this is the last film for French director Corneau who died shortly after its French release.
His work has not been much seen here though Tous Les Matins du Monde his 1991 biopic of a 17th-century cellist was a splendid evocation of the passion of the artist and a notable father-and-son act for Gerard and Guillaume Depardieu.
Here though he’s in Hitchcockian vein as he mixes Working Girl with the TV series Damages gives it a squeeze of Gallic zest and serves it very chilled indeed.

She seems to be a mentor to her adoring lieutenant Isabelle (Sagnier) who is plainly keen to learn. But the younger woman’s adoration curdles somewhat when Christine starts playing games including claiming credit with the top brass for Isabelle’s original work (“It’s not betrayal ” she explains with a toxically sweet smile “it’s teamwork.”) When Isabelle gets one up on Christine the latter’s tricks escalate into harassment verging on psychological terror – and Isabelle starts planning to get even.
