IMDb 6.3 Metacritic 67 RT 82%

A solid mystery-thriller that critics respect more than audiences do, but the 82% RT score is your green light—watch it tonight if you're in the mood for intelligent crime drama with psychological depth. The middling IMDb score suggests it's not a crowd-pleaser, but that often means it's thoughtful rather than flawed.

Plot

The renowned psychiatrist Lilian Steiner mounts a private investigation into the death of one of her patients, whom she is convinced has been murdered.
