This movie raises a lot of questions

Catherine Stewart is a gynecologist married to David Stewart, a charming university professor, for many years.She starts suspecting that her husband is having an affair, specially when she sees a picture of him with one of his young university's students, after missing the birthday party Catherine prepared for him. Determined to know the truth, she hires Chloe, a beautiful prostitute, to seduce David and see if he responds her flirts.

I watched ' Chloe' two times in order to understand the movie better and to notice the subtle actions from the characters. I liked the movie( though I didn't watch the french film 'Natalie' that I see many people saying this movie is based on) and I don't dislike any of the actors casted. I also don't agree that Amanda is not playing well her role, in fact, I was surprised to see her so seductive and beautiful, since most of the movies I watched with her, she was always the stupid or dorky girl. This movie is very misunderstood, and I know it because at first, I didn't get much of the context as well.

It also raises many questions, from loyalty in a marriage to getting old and less desirable. And there is Chloe, a character that many people think is bad, but I see her, as in fact, a sweet (although obsessed to Catherine) misunderstood girl, who is only searching for someone who can pay attention and to care for her.

The movie is very open to interpretation and kind of intriguing( I hardly think that many people didn't stop a minute or two to think about the ending). But since I like a lot movies that talk about the oddities of human psyche, it was kind of fun to discuss the movie on the board and see what other people were thinking about it.
