Summary: La Femme Fatale- So Foxy It Hurts So Baad!
Review: You would fall for and hate Suzanne Stone ( Nicole Kidman ) at the same time. Fall for her because she is so wickedly original, creative in a way, hardworking, ambitious, foxy, shining, teasing, exciting, hypnotizing, beautiful, blah blah blah. Hate her to the black bone because she is the determined type of girl who would just literally do anything in order to make her very own version of personal American dreams come true! And she' s not afraid to get somebody To Die For it, if it means her Andy Warhol-esque 15-minute fame will just keep lingering on and on...forever. Period.

Synopsis: Suzanne Stone ( Nicole Kidman ), an ambitious, hardworking, pragmatic, sexy small town TV weather girl, who dreams of making it nationwide big in front of TV screen, is steadily climbing up her professional ladder to success quite the same way a hit single doing the B------------ magazine US single chart. Only a small, snack-deal problem occurs- Someone' s got to die for it! " Hey! C'est la vie- the survival of the fittest," she thinks.

Dark, ironic, thought-provoking, sometimes strange yet , above all, entertaining for every single minute, this comedic Film Noir directed by one of the most unique, talented 20th -century directors Gus Van Sant and ably portrayed by the great cast including Nicole Kidman, Matt Dillon, Joaquin Phoenix, et al, is so wickedly delicious, interesting and entertaining that it will keep you watching repetitively for the second time in a row.

Nicole Kidman at her very best in her all-American, award-winning classed performances as the wicked, foxy Suzanne Stone, is so hot, foxy, teasing, charming, manipulative, shrewd, cunning, et al that the character serves as one of the most typical Femme Fatale type of the 90's.

A few words of wisdom for any of us who ever comes across with any real-life Suzanne Stone ( if such a character exists )- K-e-e-p T-h-e D-i-s-t-a-n-c-e !

Enjoy- Shin
