Director: Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod
Cast: Robert Pattinson, Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas
Official Synopsis: "'Bel Ami' is the story of Georges Duroy, who travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession."

Reviews:
Nigel Andrews, Financial Times:
"The directors give the story a barbed conviction and the female players, especially, act to the hilt."
"All credit to the world's most pale and interesting heartthrob for subverting, if not entirely upending his image."
David Gritten, Thompson On Hollywood:
"The topical relevance of 'Bel Ami' cannot be overstated."
"[The] film establishes a tone, but just the one: it’s a strident note of sexual opportunism sounded over and over, with a briskly repetitive score ramming it home."
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter:
"Woefully short on connective tissue among characters and incident."
"Bel Ami" is now available on VOD and opens in limited release on June 8th.
