"FOUR STARS - Sleekly spellbinding."
"The movie is frequently assured and has a lot to recommend it."
"A tale of sex and scheming that is brought to life by its cast. Playful and deliciously dark."
"From Christina Ricci’s understated sensuality to Kristin Scott Thomas’ fragile angularity, the ladies are worth tracking here. They’ve supplemented beauty with good old-fashioned acting chops."

BEL AMI is the story of Georges Duroy, who travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.
