Unfaithful (2002)

3 Stars (out of 4)

Adultery Education

Buy Unfaithful on DVD.

At first glance, this erotic thriller from Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction, Lolita) looked a lot like his other films, but this time the material comes from an appropriate source -- Claude Chabrol's La Femme Infidele -- and the outstanding performances help smooth over the plot devices. Diane Lane has always been great, but her Connie Sumner is the meatiest role she's had in a while; she deserves her current Oscar nomination. Fox's 2003 DVD has plenty of extras, but none of them are worth writing home about. (It would have been great to include Chabrol's version for comparison.)
