Ben Bradford is a Wall Street lawyer and amateur photographer whose marriage is falling apart. When he finds out that his wife is having an affair with a professional but unsuccessful photographer, he kills the man in a fit of anger. He disposes of the body in a way that leads everyone to believe that he was the one who
Complicated? I can't describe it, but it has a well written and cinematic flow. Made me thinking about my dreams and my life. When the 'I' and the 'Must' collide....
