The Guest List

"It’s too hard to say. The Guest List and The Hunting Party are so different. They’re both what I think of now as commercial thrillers — with love-to-hate characters. The Invitation feels more like a love story as well as a mystery. It’s not really a thriller in the same way. The Invitation I liked because of Rome, because of the parties, and the history that adds glamour to it as well. Anything set a few decades earlier is a different kind of travel — in the same way that going to a luxury resort takes you out of yourself."
