About this movie

Stylish and sexy, FATAL ATTRACTION took audiences to terrifying new heights with its thrilling story of a casual encounter gone terribly awry. This box-office smash was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director (Adrian Lyne—Indecent Proposal, Flashdance). Michael Douglas plays Dan Gallagher, a New York attorney who has a tryst with seductive Alex Forrest (Glenn Close) while his wife (Anne Archer) is away. Dan later shrugs off the affair as a mistake and considers it over. But Alex won't be ignored. Not now, not tomorrow, not ever...even if it means destroying Dan's family to keep him.

Adrian Lyne directs such a dramatic and thrilling movie with great performances, particuly Micheal Dugles, Gleen Close, Anne Archer and even little Ellen Hamilton Latzen.
