Chloe

With this erotic drama, Canadian Egoyan mostly improves on the French original, Anne Fontaine’s subdued 2003 melodrama Nathalie. Moore delivers a full-blooded performance as a glamorous obstetrician who, looking for proof that her husband (Neeson) is unfaithful, hires call girl Chloe (Seyfried) to entrap him. But as the two women meet repeatedly for seduction progress reports, it’s the wife who gradually becomes ensnared. The combustion owes much to the female leads.
