Don't underestimate the silly white sweet housewife

The housewife Stephana's husband and brother both died in a car accident. She lives on the insurance money of her husband who died in the car accident. While raising her son, she is also a podcaster and often cooks on live broadcasts. Stefana met Emily, the mother of her son's classmate Nick, at school, and the two quickly became friends and shared secrets with each other. Stefana found out that Emily took her privacy very seriously. The photo she took of Emily was asked to delete, and Emily deleted her husband Sean's Facebook because he posted a family photo.

Emily disappears after Stefana agrees to help her pick up the baby. Stefana learns from Emily's company that Emily is on a business trip to Miami. However, Stephana found out that Emily did not go to Miami, but rented a car in Baggett and paid the rent in cash, which shows that Emily has some unspeakable secrets. Later, Emily's body was recovered from the lake. While dealing with Emily's funeral, Stefana accepts the pursuit of Sean, Emily's husband, a failed novelist and English professor at the school, and moves into the Sean's house.

Strange things happened one after another, and Stefana felt that Emily was not dead and had been spying on her. And Sean invested four million in life insurance before Emily's death, which also made the police suspicious. Stephana began to investigate the truth: she found the artist based on the author's signature of Emily's portrait, the artist said that she painted Claudia and that Claudia never touched heroin (a cloth between the arm and toe of Emily's body) full of pinholes, indicating heroin injection). Stefana got the only thing Claudia had left at the time: the Squaw Lake Bible camp undershirt she had brought with her since she was a child. Stefana found photos of twin sisters Faith McCrandon and Hope McCrandon at Squaw Lake Bible Camp, and later found McCrandon's mother, who said Faith was a drug addict and Hope was good at deception , the two sisters disappeared after setting fire to their father.

It turned out that because his father's discipline was too strict, Faith and Hope set fire to their father and left. In order not to attract attention, the two parted ways, but Hope did not see Faith at the agreed place later. After that, Hope came to the big city and got the status he is today, becoming the public relations minister of a well-known clothing company and having a family. But it was the husband's family photo that Faith saw. So Faith met with Hope. After the reunion, Faith, who had no drug use, used the original arson case to extort Hope for 1 million. As a result, Hope was drowned in the lake.

Emily makes a comeback, saying it was her husband Sean who forced her to do everything. After some battle of wits, Emily is caught, and she is very comfortable with prison life.

The film is based on the novel of the same name by Dassey Bell. Brother fucker VS sister killer, Stephana met her half-brother Chris at her father's funeral and had a relationship, causing her husband Miles to suspect that his son was not biological, so that Miles and Ke Both were killed when Reese was involved in a car accident while driving to negotiate the matter. Emily steals Sean's mother's heirloom ring but tells Stefana that it was given by Sean's mother. When Sean asked Emily to return the ring, Emily threatened Sean not to tell his mother, otherwise she would tell her mother-in-law that she stole the ring, making Sean's parents think their son married a thief. After Sean and Stephana got together, they still behaved intimately with the school's female assistant. Emily once told Stephana that Sean, Sean's female assistant, and Emily had played a threesome. The three perfectly deduced what it means to be shattered.

Emily's appearance is so cool. The actor Blake Lively has had a relationship with Hollywood "heartbeat" Leonardo DiCaprio and "Green Lantern" Ryan Reynolds.

Anna Kendrick worked with George Clooney on "In the Clouds."

A suspenseful story makes the three perform so emotionally! Knowing the face but not the heart, human nature is so dark.

    "Gone Lover" + "Rashomon", three women and one man are more scumbags than each other, intrigue and kill each other, the director is not making a movie, he is raising a gu. (This also shows that most people have the dark side of human nature, have their own little secrets, and there is no absolute good person. Don't test human nature, because human nature cannot stand the test.)

    The biggest advantage of this film is that it is obviously a suspense and thriller but it has a comedy feel. AK played a nerd, neurotic, and green tea girl this time. It would be great if it really became the end of the film.
