De l'amour au mensonge

Allison Conner (Sarah Lancaster) attends a conference with her boss Bev. She meets a nice guy in Phillip Lauder (Mark Humphrey) who turns out to be the multi-billionaire that Bev is trying to land. He quickly proposes. It's a big transition as she lives under her new husband's security. His previous wife Monique was kidnapped for ransom and killed. There seems to be more to the story. The FBI blackmails her to co-operate in their investigation into Phillip. More people are getting killed and suspicions are raised on all sides.

Like a lot of these movies, the production is not rich enough to portray a billionaire's life. As for the story itself, there are lots of questionable turns. The first odd note struck is Bev. I don't understand her feeling towards the new relationship unless she already knew something from the start. For normal business, Allison would be a great way to get in the door. There are strange occurrences like the FBI pulling her off the street throwing her into a van. It's done for drama but it's overly done. There are many things happening that are unreal. If security is so tight, Phillip would insists on a constant bodyguard for Allison. There are characters that I'm not sure who they are supposed to be. I know they work for the company but I'm not sure as what. The acting is fine for a TV movie. There are worst. The 'mystery' is functional enough to keep a small amount of interest.

I think this was one of the best movies I've seen on TV in a long time. I disagree with those who think it was a waste of time and money. Sarah Lancaster is a very good actress and Mark Humphrey is a very good actor not to mention both are very sexy. I think they both were perfect for the parts they played in this movie. Mark Humphrey is one of the sexiest actors I've seen in a long time. I taped this movie and have watched it several times, that is how much I enjoyed it. It kept me guessing a lot, you don't know if Phillip is involved in any of the criminal activity until the last of the movie and you feel so sorry for Allison for getting into this situation especially because she is so in love with Phillip. I think this is definitely a movie worth watching.

Airing on The Lifetime Channel as "Living with the Enemy" this film features Sarah Lancaster as a harried assistant who is swept off her feet by a techie billionaire. While adjusting to her new life - being the wife of a billionaire can be a tad stifling with the cars and bodyguards - the young bride discovers some nasty history behind her hubby's success. While some of the many twists and turns seemed a bit too convenient, there were enough of them that weren't too obvious so that I was entertained throughout. Overall, the movie makes for a nice evening. It kept me guessing - and staying tuned after each commercial break!

Loved the movie, however would like to know why there are 4 different versions. I personally liked the 3rd version where Allison in the end did not look so completely distrusting, especially as Philip owned up to never having killed anyone. Also would have liked to see a reconciliation scene where the two of them allow their feelings to show for one another. Riding off in the sunlight was nice, but come on, think about it! After all that has happened to both of them don't you think a little more should have been offered. I would also have liked seeing Tanya packing and leaving. I noticed that this movie is not yet so sale through the 'Lifetime" network. Is it because out of the 4 versions, one has not yet be confirmed?

"Living With The Enemy" is a modern Cinderella story gone horribly wrong. When a pretty and decent journalist accompanies her boss to interview a reclusive Bill Gates type, she gets more than she could ever have dreamed out of the initial encounter. But billion dollar fortunes aren't made on hugs, and the more the main character gets involved with this world, the more confusing things become for her until she doesn't know who to trust. I'm a big fan of thrillers and the evocative and balanced storytelling by writer Alexandra Komisaruk and Phillipe Gagnon in this film kept me guessing. A nice twist on the theme of, be careful what you wish for, you just might get it. Sarah Lancaster was a good choice for the lead - more depth than the usual heroine, with girl next door looks in some scenes and more sparkle in others. Overall, a good bet!
