Description
Closer is a 2004 romantic drama film written by Patrick Marber, based on his award-winning 1997 play of the same name. The movie was produced and directed by Mike Nichols and stars Julia Roberts, Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Clive Owen. The film, like the play on which it is based, has been seen by some as a modern and tragic version of Mozart's opera Cosi fan tutte, with references to that opera in both the plot and the soundtrack. Owen starred in the play as Dan, the role assumed by Law in the film.

(Lyrics) I feel the shadows hanging over They're waiting to come closer To come and take me away And I can feel my heart skip Every time that I sleep I wanna run away I, I've been working the morning Don't get off til the night I can't find the time to clear my mind Oh, I dream of the lazy days One of the careless ways for me to be living I feel the shadows hanging over They're waiting to come closer To come and take me away And I can feel my heart skip Every time that I sleep I wanna run away I feel the shadows hanging over They're waiting to come closer To come and take me away And I can feel my heart skip Every time that I sleep I wanna run away

Benson does her best to help a rape victim, who is able to describe her attack (but not the attacker) in perfect detail. When the detectives revisit the case a few months later, they find the woman even less willing to talk about what happened, as she claims she has moved on. Things turn uncomfortable within the squad when Benson and Cassidy spend the night together, because Benson just wanted one night, but Cassidy is left wanting more.
