Immersive and darkly entertaining, Looker is a searing psychological portrait of obsession..
After a disastrous interaction with the actress at the annual block party, what began as an innocent preoccupation turns into a stunning--and irrevocable--unraveling.
Before long, she\'s collecting cast-off items from the actress\'s stoop and fantasizing about sleeping with the actress\'s husband.
As her fascination grows, the narrator\'s hold on reality begins to slip.
The actress, a celebrity with a charmed career, shares a gleaming brownstone with her handsome husband and three adorable children, while the recently separated narrator, unhappily childless and stuck in a dead-end job, lives in a run-down, three-story walk-up with her ex-husband\'s cat.
Though the two women live just a few doors apart, a chasm lies between them.
