Bret_Easton_Ellis' controversial novel about the sexual, emotional, and chemical interactions of a group of wealthy and amoral college students is brought to the screen in this adaptation from writer and director Roger_Avery. Sean Bateman (James_Van_Der_Beek) is a student at Camden College, a well-respected private school on the East Coast. Sean is attracted to Lauren Hynde (Shannyn_Sossamon), a high minded and seemingly unapproachable coed, while Lauren is infatuated with Victor (Kip_Pardue), a handsome but self-centered ladies' man. Lauren's empty-headed roommate, Lara (Jessica_Biel), is also attracted to Victor, while he has no qualms about being involved with both. Lauren used to date affected snob Paul Denton (Ian_Somerhalder), but Paul, a bisexual, currently lusts after Sean. Meanwhile, friendly campus drug dealer Rupert (Clifton_Collins_Jr.) finds a ready market for cocaine among his classmates; Sean, a steady customer, finds himself financially embarrassed and begins dealing drugs to help pay off his debts, while leading Paul on for his ready supply of marijuana. The Rules of Attraction also features Eric_Stoltz as Mr. Lance Lawson, Faye_Dunaway and Swoosie_Kurtz as semi-concerned parents, and Fred_Savage as one of Sean's customers. Mark Deming, Rovi
