Dangerous Liaisons is thee most provocative, intriguing, debauchery ever written. Malkovich , Close, and Pfeiffer are sizzling!! Malkovich at first... scene was a turn off but later on I couldn't wait to spend time with him....!!! Marvelous acting! The costuming was sensational and believable. Setting was marvelous. Excellent all around. You must watch it at least twice know who is doing what to whom and why !! I watch it at least once a month...!! cg Full Review

In "Fatal Attraction" [Close] was a woman out of control. Here she's in control of her emotions, too much in control. When Merteuil finally lets loose and gives way to complete animal despair, Close is horrifying. [13 Jan 1989, Daily Datebook, p.E1]Full Review

Pfeiffer reveals an emotional nakedness that's almost shocking. Never has she exposed so much and done it so simply. Who knew she could be this good?Full Review

Nothing Miss Close has done on the screen before approaches the richness and comic delicacy of her work as the Marquise. [21 Dec 1988, p.C22]Full Review
