Drama
Set against the backdrop of the London stage, this seductive mystery stars John Bon Jovi as Robin Grange, a charming American celebrity working in London on a new theatrical hit. Felix Webb (Lambert Wilson) is the playwright of the new piece, who is having an affair with the young leading lady of the show, Hilary Rule (Thandie Newton). When Robin offers Felix an intriguing solution to his marital woes, the deperate playwright finds himself trapped in a deceitful game that mirrors the actions of the play they are producing.
