The Deep End (2001) D: Scott McGehee, David Siegel. Tilda Swinton, Goran Visnjic, Jonathan Tucker, Peter Donat, Josh Lucas, Raymond J. Barry, Tamara Hope. A mother finds her gay son's lover dead near their home, then tried to cover up the crime suspecting her son might be the killer. But things get increasingly complicated when a man tries to extort her for $50,000 after he tells her that he has incriminating evidence. An interesting study in character and offers several plot twists along the way, but the ending is less than satisfactory. RATING: 7 out of 10. Rated R for violence, profanity, and strong sexuality.
