Tell No One [Blu-ray]

Overview

An innocent man is on the run after he's accused of murder and his spouse seemingly returns from the grave in this thriller from France. Alex Beck (Fran?ois Cluzet) is a doctor who has slowly been putting his life back together after his wife Margot was murdered by a serial killer. Eight years on, Alex is doing well enough until he finds himself implicated in the murder of two people, with plenty of evidence pointing to him as the killer even though he knows nothing of the crimes. The same day, Alex receives an e-mail that appears to be from Margot (Marie-Jos?e Croze), which includes a link to a video clip that seems to be recent and features his late wife looking alive and well. Margot's message warns Alex that they are both being watched, and he struggles to stay one step ahead of the law as a gang of strong-arm men intimidate Alex's friends into telling whatever they might know about him. Alex's sister Anne (Marina Hands) persuades her well-to-do lover Helene (Kristin Scott Thomas) to hire a well respected attorney, Elisabeth Feldman (Nathalie Baye), to handle Alex's case. While Elisabeth tries to keep Alex out of jail, she learns that her client has a warrant out for his arrest, and Alex goes on the lam while he and his lawyer struggle to find out the truth about the murder as well as Margot's reappearance. Tell No One (aka Ne Le Dis a Personne) was based on the international best-selling novel by Harlan Coben.

Editorial Reviews

Tell No One is an absolutely first-rate mystery-thriller, blessed with a labyrinthine plot that may lose a few people but which will hold the attention of even the most confused viewer. On the surface, No One has a lot in common with the films of Alfred Hitchcock, starting with its "innocent man on the run" premise. But whereas the "Master of Suspense" tends to mine emotions mostly for the thrill that they create in the viewer and delivering his protagonists to safety and comfort by the final frame, No One director Guillaume Canet (and screenwriter Philippe Lefebvre) is more interested in really exploring how the traumatic events depicted in the film actually affect his leads. Thus, there is a sense of melancholy throughout the film, which ultimately becomes a palpable sense of loss; even when the film's resolution brings about a "happy" ending, one knows that these characters, reunited though they might be, have lost not only the actual years that they have been apart but an innocence that cannot be regained. One should hasten to add that Canet achieves this without once sacrificing the thrills and excitement that such a story demands. The director's work is exemplary, and the screenwriter's equally so. They are aided by a dream cast, starting with the ideal François Cluzet, whose perfect performance is invaluable. François Berléand brings nuance to the role of the detective, Nathalie Baye is a treat as the tough lawyer, and Kristin Scott Thomas brings sympathy and nuance to her role as Cluzet's friend and "sister-in-law." Tell No One is a wonderful roller coaster of a movie that also packs an emotional wallop.
