Short description

Ulrich Mott is an eccentric social climber who marries Elsa Brecht, a well-connected journalist significantly older than himself. Mott uses this strategic union to enter high society and influence United States foreign policy, positioning himself as an essential figure within political and diplomatic circles. While he successfully charms those around him, Elsa's daughter, Amanda, remains suspicious of his motives and dislikes the marriage. The story follows Mott's ascent and the tension with his stepdaughter, eventually leading to a situation where Mott becomes a suspect following the mysterious death of his wife.

The film was directed by Christoph Waltz, who also stars as the lead character, Ulrich Mott. The cast includes Vanessa Redgrave as Elsa Brecht and Annette Bening as Amanda Brecht, with supporting roles played by Corey Hawkins, Sergio Di Zio, and Noam Jenkins. A co-production between the United Kingdom and the United States, the movie was produced by RatPac Entertainment, Cornerstone Films, Romulus Entertainment, and InterTitle Films, with a screenplay written by David Auburn. Released on May 14, 2019, the crime drama has a runtime of 99 minutes. On TMDB, the film holds a rating of 5.9/10 based on 201 votes.
