Tim Roth (Planet of the Apes) and Renee Zellweger (Bridget Jone's Diary) star in this riveting psychological thriller with shocking twists, "sharp dialogue and a cynical intelligence" (Chicago Tribune). Also starring Chris Penn, Michael Rooker, Ellen Burstyn and Rosanna Arquette, and charged with unbridled suspense and powerful performances, this "absorbingly crafty murder mystery" (Entertainment Weekly) delves into the murky depths of truth and deception and delivers a stunning final scene that will jolt your spine with chills!
James Wayland (Roth) is not a typical murder suspect: he's fabulously wealthy, a Princeton graduate and has a genius- level I.Q.. But Detectives Braxton (Chris Penn) and Kennesaw (Michael Rooker) sense that there's more than meets the eye when they interrogate him for the brutal killing of a beautiful call girl (Zellweger). As their search for the truth takes a suddenly dangerous turn, Braxton and Kennesaw realize that wayland is a master manipulator, cleverely using their darkest secrets against them in a lethal, winner- take- all game that ignites a powder keg of deadly motives and shocking revelations.
