SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved Femme Fatale, try these.

Body Double poster 01

Movie / 1984 / Crime / Thriller

Body Double

Why this pick

De Palma’s gleaming, voyeuristic Los Angeles nightmare shares Femme Fatale’s flamboyant erotic-thriller grammar, shifting identities, and deliberate pleasure in making appearances feel dangerously unreliable.

Mulholland Dr. poster 02

Movie / 2001 / Drama / Mystery / Thriller

Mulholland Dr.

Why this pick

A seductive Hollywood labyrinth of doubles, reinvention, and dreamlike ruptures, with the same luxuriant visual control and unstable sense of who is watching whom.

The Last Seduction poster 03

Movie / 1994 / Thriller

The Last Seduction

Why this pick

For another coolly commanding femme fatale, this razor-sharp neo-noir centers on seduction as strategy and keeps its betrayals brisk, stylish, and nasty.

Wild Things poster 04

Movie / 1998 / Drama / Thriller

Wild Things

Why this pick

A sunlit, knowingly trashy noir built around sexual manipulation, criminal scheming, and escalating revelations—ideal if Femme Fatale’s audacious twists were the draw.

Love Crime poster 05

Movie / 2010 / Thriller / Crime

Love Crime

Why this pick

This sleek French corporate thriller turns female rivalry into a poised, chilly contest of performance and control, with polished surfaces concealing ruthless calculation.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

Mercenary thief Laure Ash (Rebecca Romijn) participates in a diamond heist in Cannes Film Festival. The plan is for Laure to steal valuable diamonds from the ensemble of a female attendant named Veronica (Rie Rasmussen) while in the middle of seducing her, during which her accomplices "Black Tie" (Eriq Ebouaney) and Racine (Édouard Montrouge) provide various support. However, Laure instead double-crosses her accomplices and escapes to Paris with the diamonds. In Paris, a series of events causes Laure to be mistaken for her own doppelgänger, a missing Parisian woman named "Lily" (also portrayed by Romijn) who had recently disappeared. While Laure luxuriates in a tub in Lily's home, the real Lily returns and commits suicide while Laure secretly watches, providing Laure the opportunity to take her identity for good, and she leaves the country for United States.
