French writer Choderlos de Lacios' novel, Les Liaisons Dangereuses has been adapted to the stage and screen many times. This Destination Hollywood Tribute focuses on the three most recent movie versions: Dangerous Liaisons (1988), Valmont (1989) and Cruel Intentions (1999). The basic premise is this: a thoroughly despicable "off-again on-again" couple amuse themselves by conspiring to make the lives of every person around them as unhappy as possible. The story may be the same in all three movies but what we enjoy are the differences that can be found in the varied executions of three different casts and three different directors. We can't help but like it …it's beyond our control in our Tribute to Dangerous Liaisons.
