A British intelligence agent (Ewan McGregor) becomes
obsessed with protecting rather than apprehending the murderous disguise artist (Ashley
Judd) he's assigned to follow. Also with Patrick Bergin, k.d. lang, Jason Priestley,
Genevieve Bujold, Charles Powell, Cara Reynolds, Sam Stone and Janine Theriault. [1:49]
SEX/NUDITY 6 - A couple of kisses and neck-nuzzles. A couple has intercourse
with moaning and movement (his bare buttocks are visible). We glimpse a woman's bare
breast and the side of her nude body as she gets into a bathtub; in another scene we see
her bare backside from a slight distance. We see a woman wearing a towel, bra and panties
(from a distance) and a small body suit with thigh-high hose (in one part of the scene,
she's sitting in a chair and a man leans over her, looks up and down her body and
appears to kiss her forehead). We see a nude male corpse from a distance (only the side of
his bare leg is somewhat clear). In the background of a scene we see a scantily clad woman
dancing behind a glass wall. A few modern paintings of topless women hang in the
background of a scene.
VIOLENCE/GORE 7 - A woman stabs a man repeatedly (we see lots of blood on
his shirt and some on her; later, we see her bloody legs as she's dragging a bloody
body bag, and we also see her washing blood from her bare back). A man is shot (we see a
bloody hole on his shirt) and another appears to have been shot, but he isn't
injured. A car is shot at a few times, causing it to crash into a truck; one of the
passengers is killed (lots of blood is visible on the side of the person's head) and
another has a bloody forehead cut. A car hits a man (we see him roll onto the hood, then
onto the ground) and a man falls off a motorcycle (he gets a slightly bloody cut on his
head). A car flies off the road and into an icy lake; the driver (who has several bloody
facial cuts) is pulled from the car. A man punches and kicks another; in one scene, a man
repeatedly punches another in the face, resulting in lots of blood. A man punches a
woman's face, throws her into a table and wall, kicks her and steps on her hand; when
she's unconscious, he injects a drug into her arm and leans over her body (he
doesn't do anything else to her). Men taunt and grab at a woman, then she slaps at
their arms and shoulders a few times. A bloody, unconscious man is put into the trunk of a
car; we later see the unmanned car driving in circles and hear the man yelling to be let
out. We see a corpse's face floating near a window, then see the body fall out of a
room and onto the floor. Some threatening with guns; in one scene, gunfire is exchanged
between a man and several police officers.
PROFANITY 7 - At least 25 F-words, some anatomical references, a few
scatological references, several mild obscenities and some insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Murder, stalking, obsession, voyeurism, disguise artists,
being haunted by the past, abandonment, death or loss of loved ones.
MESSAGE - Obsession can be all-consuming and deadly; unfortunate
circumstances can cause decent people to act unreasonably and immorally.
