In the Cut

The movie about a woman who becomes increasingly involved in a serial murder case--and with the detective in charge. Adapted from Susanna Moore's novel and directed by Jane Campion (The Piano), the film stars Ryan as Frannie Avery, a writing professor whose non-descript life takes a disturbing turn after she becomes a potential witness in a deadly case. Soon, she finds herself drawn into a torrid affair with the lead investigator (Mark Ruffalo)...even as the killer draws closer to her inner circle. (Home Box Office)
