Paul Verhoeven (BASIC INSTINCT, STARSHIP TROOPERS) won international acclaim for this sexy, gory film noir. Christine (Renee Soutendijk) is a three time widow with a mysterious past and a new lover, Herman (Thom Hoffman). Enter Gerard Reve (Jeroen Krabbe), the bisexual writer of several controversial novels. Unable to resist the alluring Christine, he also finds himself attracted to Herman.
