A Perfect Murder
CrimeDramaThriller107 min
Manhattan financier Steven Taylor has money, status, and a carefully managed marriage, but when he learns his wife is having an affair, he turns suspicion into a murder plot. Michael Douglas is the polished, controlling Steven, while Gwyneth Paltrow’s Emily moves through New York society with secrets of her own. As Steven closes in on her lover and tries to engineer a killing that can’t be traced back to him, the story stays fixed on wealth, possession, and the private bargains hidden inside an elite marriage.
