Viggo Mortensen in A Perfect Murder
A Perfect Murder Cast and CrewViggo Mortensen: David Shaw Other leading roles: A Perfect Murder SynopsisThe husband (Michael Douglas) is a currency trader whose portfolio value is shrinking disasterously. The wife (Gwyneth Paltrow) is the heiress to a $100 million fortune. The marriage is not a happy one, but the promise of long-term affluence keeps them together. The wife pursues an affair with an artist (Viggo Mortensen) who gives her all the passion she doesn't get at home. The husband decides that his wife is worth more dead than alive. A Perfect Murder Brief ReviewThis remake of the Hitchcock classic, Dial M for Murder, is aesthetically appealing and the performances are strong. Still it seems to be missing its heart. The police inspector was the only character I felt I might enjoy getting to know better.

Still there are the usual film clips and trailers, stills and screensavers, brief cast biographies. The site map helps.
Rob's Reviews: A Perfect Murder - Curmudgeonly reviewer Rob Gonsalves rips apart the plot and performances in A Perfect Murder, calling it "twisty and preposterous and boring." I like his description of David Shaw as a "lank-haired hipster artist (Viggo Mortensen, looking like an unholy cross between Kurt Cobain and Harlan Ellison)."
