 Definition: 

Unfaithful
From the director of "Fatal Attraction" comes this scorching "seductive tease of a thriller" (Rolling Stone) about sexual passion so intense, it consumes everthing-and everyone- that crosses its path. Edward and Connie Summer (Richard Gere, Diane Lane) seem to have the perfect marriage. But when Connie's chance encounter with a handsome stranger (Oliver Martinez) erupts into a full-brown affair, desire becomes obsession, and the true price of betrayal takes a shattering toll.
