Plot summary
Agnes and Henny, a college literature professor and once aspiring actress respectively, were once the closest of friends, they practically inseparable for a year in their young adulthood, until they had a falling out. They have not seen each other in over ten years, not knowing the intimate details of the other's present life, until they see each other from afar at the funeral of Agnes' husband, Erich Neuman-Hansen, who passed after suffering from leukemia. Henny's presence at the funeral is not by chance as she is seemingly aware of Agnes' predicament following Erich's passing. He has left half his estate to her, and half to his young adult stepchildren, Thomas and Carla, that estate including her and Erich's house, long having been in the Neuman-Hansen family, whereas Agnes thought the house would be placed in trust under her name. Thomas, never having trusted Agnes, has convinced Carla to take their half share now, meaning that they as a collective will have to sell the property as Agnes does not have the funds to buy out her stepchildren. Wealthy Henny's proposition to her old friend, the idea from the old movie Strangers on a Train (1951): Agnes is to kill Henny's self-absorbed husband, Peter Grossman, a theater producer, while Henny, in return, would provide Agnes with the necessary funds, no matter the amount, for her to buy Thomas and Carla's half to allow her to stay in the house. Despite the reasons beyond no longer loving Peter in wanting him dead, Henny has been unable to pull the proverbial trigger herself. The primary question then becomes if there are underlying motivations for Henny asking Agnes to kill Peter or Agnes' decision on the matter that may relate to the reason for their falling out over ten years ago.

this movie sucked
Not quite Hitchcock
A touch of "Strangers on a Train" which is one of my all time favorites. But these people aren't strangers at all. The plan is on, its off, it's on and off again. You'll have to watch to see how it finishes. Enough plot twists to keep it interesting. Drags a bit like all of these Intrigo stories do but worth a look see.
Criss Cross
Gemma Chan and Carla Juri had once been very close friends, but have drifted apart. Now Miss Juri is burying her much older husband, and sees Mss Chan, who vanishes. When she reappears, they renew their friendship in a tentative manner, and Miss Juri asks Miss Chan to help kill her husband.
The second of three movies based on Håkan Nesser's short story collection is not as intricately plotted as the first, but it lives in the unspoken details, the expressions on peoples' faces, and the impeccably clean and detailed, upper class world these people live in, like an Éric Rohmer film. An air of anomie suffuses the movie, which tends to make it less compelling to me, but there's little doubt that director Daniel Alfredson accomplishes what he set out to do, which is to involve the audience by making them fill in the unspoken and unshown details.
