The Rules of Attraction is a dark satirical film directed by Roger Avary, based on the novel of the same name by Bret Eastern Ellis.
It stars James Van Der Beek, Shannyn Sossamon, Ian Somerhalder & Jessica Biel.
Plot : This is a twisted story about sex, drugs, and college. Three disturbed students at Camden college get involved in a love triangle. Sean Bateman is a womanizing drug dealer who falls in love with virginal Lauren (not to be confused with her slutty roommate Lara,) because he inspects that she is his secret admirer, who is leaving notes in his box. Although Lauren does like Sean, she is still infatuated with Victor (her shallow ex boyfriend) who is in Europe for a semester. Lauren used to date Paul before he came out of the closet, and now Paul has his eyes on Sean when he mistakes him for bisexual. Things get more complicated since all the side characters (including the mentioned Lara and Victor) are deeply disturbed as well. Everybody is only looking out for themselves. ( Written by Heather Marik).
If you are a fan of Bret Eastern Ellis novels, you might be a little disappointed at the adaptation of the film. Books always do a better job in such cases. But for a film that is based on teenagers, college & love triangles, ill say its worth watching just for the way the story is told & how the film was directed. The way the characters & their lifes connected to one another without even realizing it, would make us wonder who are we not paying attention too in reality. If that does not do it for you, well here is even better news. Jessica Biel as the college slut, fucking every guy she has a chance ( That did interest you dudes a little more now didnt it?) And personally for me, I just wanted to watch Shannyn Sossamon but as i watched the film i realized the similarities i had with Sean Bateman ( Interest in the weirdest girls in school & choosing pot over sex etc etc). Oh well, have fun watching it!
