Bel Ami (2012)

Based on French novelist Guy de Maupassant's work with the same title. A poor young soldier Georges Duroy (Robert Pattinson) with a help of a friend becomes a journalist. Next, he builds his career by charming wealthy women, Clotilde (Christina Ricci), Madeleine (Uma Thurman), and Virginie (Kristin Scott Thomas).
The movie has a wonderful cast. Pattinson's empty, cold  eyes against the passion of women. Ricci's Clotilde is flirtatious, Thurman's Madeleine is clever and independent, and Scott Thomas' Virginie desperate.
Rating 8 of 10
