Character: Claire Stenwick in Duplicity
Film: It’s easy to see that ex-CIA agent Claire Stenwick (Julia Roberts) and former MI6 member Ray Koval (Clive Owen) have a heated history together when they embark on an elaborate mission of corporate espionage.
Two rival CEOs (played by the always fantastic Tom Wilkinson and Paul Giamatti) are battling for the top spot in their industry, and a top-secret new product would determine who would wear the crown.
But this isn’t just about business innovation and profit: Claire and Ray have a plan that would help them get the prized formula and walk away with millions

Critics: “It's good to see an espionage thriller that avoids the clichés of the genre.” - Daily Telegraph
“A beautifully shot, well written and impressively acted thriller that's both suspenseful and emotionally engaging.” - View London
“ A high-tech romantic thriller set in the little-seen world of corporate espionage, Tony Gilroy's second feature is sophisticated adult entertainment which puts the lazy Ocean's films to shame with its clever writing, lively direction and visual panache.” - Screen International
