Read My Lips

Newly Added • 1h 59m

Directed by Jacques Audiard • 2001 • France
Starring Vincent Cassel, Emmanuelle Devos, Olivier Gourmet

Jacques Audiard’s electrifying romantic thriller features a pair of sensational performances from Emmanuelle Devos and Vincent Cassel as two outsiders drawn together by an attraction to danger. She is Carla, a hearing-impaired office worker treated with disdain by her colleagues. He’s Paul, a scruffy ex-con whom she hires as her assistant. When he ropes her into a robbery scheme, her ability to read lips proves useful as they navigate their growing attraction through a series of thrillingly unpredictable twists.
