About Dangerous Liaisons
In 18th century France, Marquise de Merteuil asks her ex-lover Vicomte de Valmont to seduce the future wife of another ex-lover of hers in return for one last night with her. Yet things don’t go as planned.
Directed by Stephen Frears, Dangerous Liaisons leans on a strong ensemble — Glenn Close, John Malkovich, Michelle Pfeiffer — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1988.
