Sleeping With the Enemy
The plot revolves around the protagonist Laura, portrayed by Julia Roberts, who tries to escape the obsessive control of her husband Martin, played by Patrick Bergin. The film crudely and realistically explores the dark and often subtle aspects of emotional and physical abuse within a marital relationship. Martin is a manipulative and violent husband who seeks to maintain total control over Laura’s life, isolating her from the outside world and threatening her with violence whenever she attempts to rebel.
