Laure Ash, a sultry former $10-million jewel thief and con woman, tries to straighten out her life. But she is suddenly exposed to the world and her enemies when the voyeuristic tabloid photographer, Nicholas Bardo, snaps her picture in Paris and starts to take a special interest in her.

Brian De Palma opens this riotously entertaining Hitchcockian thriller with one of his best set pieces: a jewelry heist at the Cannes Film Festival. Starring Rebecca Romijn and Antonio Banderas, Femme Fatale binds Hollywood classicism to Eurosleaze for a twisted journey into the dark heart of noir.
