Kristin Scott Thomas wears an unidentified watch

Kristin Scott Thomas plays Isabelle Guérin in Love Crime, a corporate executive who manipulates and torments her assistant until the power dynamic flips in unexpected ways. Alain Corneau directed this 2010 French thriller, his final film before his death later that year. Thomas plays Isabelle as someone who enjoys cruelty, stealing credit for her protégée's work while also sleeping with her boyfriend, pushing just to see how much she can take. Ludivine Sagnier plays Christine, the assistant who seems passive until the film reveals what she has been planning. The movie is a slow-burn revenge story wrapped in corporate satire, suggesting that the boardroom rewards exactly the kind of sociopathy Isabelle displays. Thomas had become a fixture in French cinema by this point, and her fluent French allows the performance to work without any of the distance that dubbing creates. Brian De Palma remade the film in 2012 with Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace. Her watch has not been identified.
