Days of De Palma (Part 16): Femme Fatale (2002)
My journey through the films of Brian De Palma continues! Following Mr. De Palma’s brief excursion into big-budget sci-fi, his next film returned to him to more familiar ground of crime, mystery, beautiful dames and Hitchcockian double-twists. I’d never seen Femme Fatale
