Here is the synopsis for “Stone”:
As parole officer Jack Mabry (Oscar winner Robert De Niro) counts the days toward a quiet retirement, he is asked to review the case of Gerald “Stone” Creeson (Oscar nominee Edward Norton). Stone is in prison for covering up the murder of his grandparents with a fire.
Now eligible for early release, Stone needs to convince Jack he has reformed, but his attempts to influence the older man’s decision have profound and unexpected consequences for them both.
“Stone” skillfully weaves together the parallel journeys of two men grappling with dark impulses as the line between lawman and lawbreaker becomes precariously thin.
Golden Globe winner Frances Conroy also stars as Madylyn – Jack’s devout, long-suffering spouse – while Milla Jovovich delivers a startlingly raw, breakout performance as the sexy, casually amoral woman both men desire.
Here is the movie trailer for “Stone”:

Moral compasses
Altbough, I’d imagine I would love my significant other, there’s no way this would end well.
Carl Lee
Not an easy answer
If i were a woman, and in that situation its just hard to tell. But initially I’d say “no way” but then if there are kids, are we married. It makes it so much more complicated. Hence, me wanting to see this movie and how they deal with it.
Anthony Ramirez Thanks
no. just no.
absolutely not.
yes
I would if my husband was okay with it and I was guarenteed he get released.
Would I sleep with my husband's parole officer?
No. No, I wouldn’t. If he did the crime, he should do the time and only his actions once behind bars should determine the terms of his realeas.

No I would never -

Sleeping with and having sex with someone are entirely different scenarios. Of course, wither way it would not end there. It’s emotional blackmail and is insidiouos in its nature to cause even more harm. No. “Sleeping” with and or engaging in sex for personal gain is never a smart, safe or foolproof solution. However, on the other hand, as a “man” would I sleep with a woman parole officer to gain my husband’s release? Hmmmm…
No, never. Sam Carmichael

Two passes for 2010 Chicago I.F.F. opening of "Stone".
As a woman, I would NOT sleep with my husband’s parole officer to assist in my husband’s release from prison… not if I actually loved my husband that is.

NO NO NO NO NO
NO FOR WHAT THEY’LL KEEP COMING FOR MORE. RICARDO GONZALEZ
