The story begins eight years after the unsolved murder of Alex’s (François Cluzet) young wife Margot (Marie-Josée Croze). New evidence raises old suspicions about Alex's involvement in her death. At the same time, unexpected emails on Alex’s computer hint at the possibility that Margot may, in fact, be alive.
Francois Cluzet and Marie-Josee Croze in "Tell No One."
Music Box FilmsWhen the police decide to pursue Alex, he finds himself desperate and on the run, helped by a variety of characters, including the large and criminally inclined father of a hemophiliac patient, his equestrian sister (the exquisite Marina Hands) and her wife (Kristin Scott-Thomas), as well as his high-powered attorney, played by accomplished French actress Nathalie Baye. It’s an enormously talented supporting cast -- and I haven't even mentioned Jean Rochefort.
Tell No One takes you into a Paris rarely seen on film -- inside housing projects and Internet cafés, across the city's busy beltway and its equally crowded neighborhood playgrounds. Fast paced and full of sudden twists, the story sometimes left me disoriented, but always, always spellbound.
