True to its title, ROMAN DE GARE (CROSSED TRACKS) finds famed French director Claude Lelouch jumping between time and loyalties in this suspenseful mystery about fate and fatal secrets. Best-selling author Judith Ralitzer (Ardant) is researching characters for her next novel. When a serial killer with a panchant for magic tricks escapes from a high-security prison, and a high-strung hairdresser abandoned by her enraged fiancé at a highway service station, Ralitzer finds herself at the receiving end of a police interrogation for two murders. Taking advantage of a superb cast and gorgeous French locations, Lelouch's veteran touch deftly manages ROMAN DE GARE's multiple layers of mystery and romance. The result is a pleasingly chic thriller grounded in a very human belief in the surprising possibilities that come from love.

"The term 'Hitchcockian' has become overused in recent years, but here is a movie to which it deserves to be applied." ReelViews

"With a winning combination of tension, romance and humor and picturesque locations from Paris to Burgundy’s vineyards to the seashore at Cannes, the film is a Francophile’s feast." Minneapolis Star Tribune
