Jeff Bridges bashes the head in of the guy who seduces Diane lane in Unfaithful, Annette Benning is left alone in American Beauty...
Okay, these are not terribly recent movies, but I believe the pattern holds in Hollywood: Fornication is for fun, but infidelity is the first step to disaster.
What movies have you seen lately that have upset you?
