Wicker Park (2004)

Wicker Park is a 2004 psychological drama/romantic mystery film directed by Paul McGuigan and starring Josh Hartnett. The film is a remake of the 1996 French movie L'Appartement. It was nominated for the Grand Prix at the Montreal Film Festival, the city in which the movie was partially filmed.

The title refers to the Wicker Park neighborhood on Chicago's near northwest side.

Moving back and forth in time and revealing the story from each character's perspective, Wicker Park is a psychological drama about a man named Matt (Josh Hartnett) who is caught in an obsessive search for Lisa (Diane Kruger), a woman with whom he had fallen deeply in love who had then vanished without a trace. Two years after her disappearance, Matt has somewhat moved on. He has a new girlfriend, Rebecca. At a restaurant he thinks he sees and hears Lisa. This sends him on a trail to find her, skipping his business trip to China. Matt's detective work leads him to a hotel room, but instead of Lisa, he finds her old compact. He is directed to her apartment and, with a key left with a man, he enters and a collection of Lisa's possessions: her perfume, shoes, etc. He realizes someone is in the room and presumes to be Lisa; the woman he meets tells him that she is Lisa. She asks him to stay the night because she is afraid of a man who has been stalking her for several days; Matt agrees, and the two end up sleeping together. In the morning she leaves for work, telling him she's a nurse. On her way, we witness a flashback which reveals that she's actually Alex (Rose Byrne), Lisa's neighbour and roommate. As they got closer to one another, Alex was charmed by Lisa and she began to copy her. When Alex sees Matt for the first time, she falls for him, and after learning of his obsession for Lisa, she starts plotting to come between them.

Alex has been dating Matt's friend Luke (Matthew Lillard) and working as a theater artist (not a nurse), and when she finds out about Matt's return to town, she again plans to fulfill her dream and tries to stop him finding Lisa. Meanwhile, Matt and Lisa cross paths many times, never noticing one another. Matt begins to suspect something and eventually uncovers Alex's plan after he buys her a pair of shoes (that Lisa bought and broke) and they're too big for her. He knows something is up because Lisa's same size broken shoes are at that apartment. He follows her, and reaches the restaurant where she's having lunch with her boyfriend Luke. Matt finally sees through her; Alex admits that Lisa left for Europe, leaving a letter for Matt telling him that she loved him. Alex destroyed the letter, and deleted all the messages Lisa left for Matt (using the key she gave her to his apartment so she could drop the note off); in the meantime, she told Lisa that she'd seen Matt with another woman. Luke tells Matt that Lisa called and said to ask Matt to meet her that afternoon. Alex tells him Lisa is leaving for London. Matt heads to Wicker Park but it's too late. He races to the airport, where he meets Rebecca (Jessica Paré) (his girlfriend), there to pick him up from the business trip he never went on. He admits to her that he loves someone else and she leaves. Elsewhere, Lisa is crouched on the floor talking to Alex on the phone, as Alex confesses what she has done. Matt spots Lisa as she hangs up and begins to cry. He goes over, crouches behind her and starts crying. She turns around and they embrace.
