Synopsis |
|
Michael Winterbottom's first
theatrical feature is a wildly
anarchic road movie in which two
lesbians fall for each other while
speeding through Northern England on
a murder spree. Amanda Plummer stars
as the exuberantly off-kilter Eunice
and Saskia Reeves plays the
obsessive Miriam, who falls under
Eunice's peculiar spell when she
stumbles into her gas station one
unassuming afternoon looking for
someone named Judith. Little does
she realize that Eunice is a
cold-blooded killer without any
semblance of a conscience. By the
time she does discover Eunice's
predilection for murder, she's too
head-over-heels in love with her to
do the right thing and turn her in.
Miriam becomes so obsessed with her
new lover, that when she discovers a
body in the trunk of Eunice's car,
she insists they bury it quickly so
that no one will find out. As they
continue their journey to nowhere,
Miriam delves into Eunice's
tantalizing and reckless world of
murder and begins to wonder if she
can separate right from wrong
herself. |
