Fatal Attraction

1987

Happily married New York lawyer Dan Gallagher (Michael Douglas) finds himself attracted to his colleague Alex (Glenn Close), and the two enjoy a passionate tryst while Dan's wife (Anne Archer) and child are away. But the one-night stand comes back to haunt Dan when Alex refuses to let him go and begins to stalk him and his family. Just how far will she go to get what she wants?

On the other side of drinks, dinner and a one night stand, lies a terrifying love story.
