The Square - 2008 - 7/10
Land developer Ray is building a recreation area for future, affluent punters.
A classic fiddle type, he extorts a kickback from a contractor.
And plays pole in the hole with a younger, fetching neighbor.
He’s married, she’s married, but if it feels good, what’s the harm?
Plenty. Carla is wed to a violent man, with a huge stash of cash hidden in the house.
She urges Ray to “do something” so they can run away.
Australian Neo-Noir has a few innocents, but most are tainted souls.
As with most half-baked plans, when thing start to go wrong, events spread like brush fire.
