Double Life Review: Unlikely Allies Hunt for the Truth

A murdered district attorney's widow and his tenacious mistress join forces to uncover a shadowy conspiracy in Double Life. It all makes little sense with an obvious mystery and melodramatic narrative. The film vacillates from soap opera to tawdry pulp thriller. That said, it surprises with charismatic leads who work well together. They add a critical dose of believability to the female empowerment subplot. Women who should hate each other find a common purpose through grief. Their turn as amateur sleuths is quite a stretch, but you root for them regardless.
