The
Anthony Shaffer play originally brought to the screen in 1972 gets the remake treatment in this updating that finds
Michael Caine stepping into the role of the brilliant
thriller writer portrayed by
Laurence Olivier in the original, and
Jude Law following in
Caine's footsteps as the young hairdresser who steals the literary giant's wife, only to find himself subsequently swallowed up in an elaborate revenge scheme.
Kenneth Branagh directs a script adapted from
Shaffer's original play by screenwriter
Harold Pinter.
