Mistaken identities, missed encounters, bad timing, strange revelations: The Apartment reinvents the genre of romantic suspense thriller. Starring Vincent Cassel, the hot young star who shot to international status with Cannes winner La Haine, powerhouse Romane Bohringer (Savage Nights, Mina Tannenbaum) Jean-Phillippe Ecoffey (La Reine Margot) and Monica Bellucci (Dracula). The Apartment is a funny, fast-paced Parisian romp: boy meets girl, boy loses girl, meets another girl, decides to get married, discovers he is still in love with the first girl, tries to recapture a lost dream, and in the process meets still another girl. And that's just the beginning. Outrageous and riveting twists and turns give the film a Hitchcockian touch, as scenes are revisited to reveal hidden motives and missing clues.
