Chloe | comment |
Chloe is a 2010 film by Canadian director Atom Egoyan, starring Julianne Moore, Amanda Seyfried, and Liam Neeson. It is a loose remake of a 2003 French film, Nathalie...Set in Toronto, Canada, the film follows Catherine Stewart (Moore), a successful gynecologist, who is married to David (Neeson), an opera expert with the distressing habit of flirting with virtually any other woman he encounters. Meanwhile, their son becomes increasingly difficult to control, leaving Catherine feeling alienated in her own house. After David misses a birthday party, Catherine becomes especially suspicious that he is cheating on her. This leads to the very bad idea of hiring a prostitute that she had encountered earlier (Seyfried) to test David's resolve. Soon, Chloe is graphically describing her encounters with David to Catherine. But it becomes increasingly clear that David isn't the one Chloe is interested in...The film attracted some early notice for very tragic reasons: Liam Neeson was in the middle of filming it when his wife actress Natasha Richardson died in a skiing accident. | |

All Men Are Perverts | |
Chloe / int_129749df | comment |
All Men Are Perverts: Initially it looks like this is in full effect, but scaled back a bit as David never actually cheated; he just thought about it, a lot. | |

Depraved Bisexual | |
Chloe / int_2ed5e99d | comment |
Depraved Bisexual: Chloe, who it turns out is highly attracted to Catherine, not taking her rejection well at all, which turns her into a stalker. Then she even threatens to kill Catherine if she won't get together with Chloe. Possibly Catherine as well, depending on how one views her actions and relationship with Chloe. | |

Chloe / int_5311aa2d | comment |
Love Father, Love Son: A gender-flipped version of this, with Chloe, Catherine and Catherine's son Michael. After Catherine ends her affair with Chloe so she could repair her marriage, Chloe meets then seduces Michael, Catherine and David's son in order to gain access to the inside of Catherine's house. While Michael immediately believes Chloe's actions as her having feelings for him as he does for her and even considered her his 'new girlfriend' after their tryst together, Chloe, on the other hand, only has feelings for Catherine and was willing to seduce Michael in order to get closer to his mother. | |

The Unfair Sex | |
Chloe / int_6ae4dedd | comment |
The Unfair Sex: If Catherine had been a man who had an affair with someone young enough to be his daughter, then push her away when she became emotionally attached and refused to take money to just go away (resulting in her suicide), he would likely be much less sympathetic than she is as a woman. | |

Bisexual Love Triangle | |
Chloe / int_85c4ebe0 | comment |
Bisexual Love Triangle: It starts off with Catherine hiring sex worker Chloe to seduce her flirtatious husband to see if he's being unfaithful, but Catherine later winds up torn between David (her longtime husband, whom she loves despite their marriage being en route to Dead Sparks) and the younger and more exciting Chloe. Turns twisted when it turns out that Chloe is Catherine's mentally unbalanced stalker. Following Chloe's death at the end, David and Catherine are implied to rekindle their marriage. | |

Ascended Extra | |
Chloe / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Catherine's son is a more important character in Chloe than in Nathalie. In the French film he's just there, being well-behaved, and he doesn't sleep with Nathalie (whom he doesn't even meet). In this movie, he's played up more as a hormonal, rebellious teen and is a big source of concern and stress for Catherine. | |

Television Geography | |
Chloe / int_e022585 | comment |
Television Geography: Averted. Toronto usually doubles for other cities; this time around it's playing itself. Egoyan has said that he intentionally set as many scenes at well-known Toronto landmarks as possible (seriously, if you went to the University of Toronto or work in Downtown Toronto, you've probably walked by every filming location in the movie), in reaction to all those films shot in generic Toronto locales to hide the fact that they are in Toronto. | |
