Trivia:
Edward states that he learned French so that he could read "Thérèse Racquin" in the original language. "Thérèse Racquin" is about an adulterous couple who dispose of the woman's husband so that they may be together, a close parallel to the story of "Dirty Tricks." more

Extremely good fun, 6 December 2000
Author: Karmapolice from UK

An adaptation of one of my favourite books, I was looking foward to this, and it didn't disappoint. Although the ending was a slightly strange deviation from the book, stating rather than hinting, it was very funny throughout, and had a suitably grim musical score.
