From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Business Affair is a 1994 romantic comedy film directed by Charlotte Brandstrom and starring Carole Bouquet. Christopher Walken and Jonathan Pryce. The film was produced by the United Kingdom in coordination with France, Germany and Spain and much of the film was shot in London. On one film poster of the film, Caroline Bouqet is featured with her arms wrapped around Big Ben with the two men aside of her.
The film is centred around the life of Kate Swallow (Carole Bouquet) and her susceptibility with falling in love with different men. At the beginning of the film she is in love with a famous writer named Alec Bolton (Jonathan Pryce), who discards any intentions she has of writing a novel herself as nonsense, strongly discouraging her. Later falls in love with a man named Vanni Corso (Christopher Walken) who is the publisher of the firm which Alec writes books for, and she leaves Alec for Vanni. Kate later finds out that Vanni also doesn't think highly of her writing abilities yet he had strung her along. Gradually both men change their attitudes as they vainly struggle to win her affections.
Walken has a scene where he is able to perform his trademark tango routine.
