Details
Movie Description
When a brilliant surgeon is accused of savage medical malpractice by his beautiful patient, it's not certain whether he's a competent physician or a malicious monster in this plot-twisting "quadruple indemnity." MALICE is a stylish and sexy thriller, with fine acting from Alec Baldwin and Nicole Kidman.
Synopsis
Andy Safian and his new wife, Tracy, reside in a quiet pastoral town where he's a well-respected professor and college dean. To offset the financial costs of renovations to their home, Andy and Tracy take in a boarder--Dr. Jed Hill, a brilliant young physician who's somewhat reckless and pleasure-driven.
Lately there have been some very disturbing events in this New England hamlet: Two of Andy's female students were brutally assaulted, and he's viewed as a suspect. Meanwhile, when Tracy goes to the hospital with abdominal cramps, the physician on call happens to be Jed, who operates prematurely. Soon all three characters will find themselves trying to sort out the serious consequences of their actions.
