“Cry Me A River” (** out of four) was a hazy suspense melodrama about a disgraced former sports star (Sam Hazeldine) who has been in hiding in Norway for years and is now stalked by a woman (Julie Dray) who closely remembers his murdered ex-wife which forces him to psychologically and physically re-examine her death and the aftermath of events that drove him underground. Well-crafted story of enigmas and red herrings is too muted and too aloof to really have the visceral and emotional impact it needs. Distributor later re-titled this “Dark Corners”.
