TONI COLLETTE JOINS
HARVEY KEITEL IN 'MADAME'Two dinner set movies today, for you, spylings, starting with Parisian comedy MADAME which has just cast our most beloved Australian actress Toni Collette and her Australian colleague Harvey Keitel to play wealthy American couple Anne and Bob living in Paris who decide to give a high class dinner for a dozen distinguished diners. The last minute arrival of Bob’s son from his first marriage suddenly takes the number of guests to 13. The superstitious Anne asks housemaid Maria (Rossy de Palma) to change her uniform and pretend to be a wealthy Spanish friend. In this guise, she is seated beside David, an art expert and British aristocrat. He falls for her charms and asks to see her again. Continuing the masquerade, Maria embarks on a romance. Anne’s world is thrown into a spin as Maria’s new found happiness exposes her own loveless marriage and shakes the foundations of her elitist social beliefs. She sets out to destroy the budding love affair.
