Why watch the movie Perfume: The Story of a Murderer?
"Perfume: The Story of a Murderer is the cinematic adaptation of the renowned novel by Patrick Süskind, directed by Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run). The plot follows Jean-Baptiste Grenouille (Ben Whishaw), a young man whose extraordinary sense of smell makes him a virtuoso perfumer in 18th-century France, but whose obsession with capturing the perfect scent of a young woman leads him down a dark path. Featuring a cast that also includes Alan Rickman and Dustin Hoffman, this adaptation is more stylized than deep. Fans of the novel and those who enjoy crime and horror films in general will enjoy it."
