PRETTY POISON
- (1968) Color 89 min: Starring Tuesday Weld, Anthony Perkins, Beverly
Garland. Easygoing but psychotic Dennis is released from jail, where he
has served a sentence for his complicity in a suspicious death. Wandering
through an Ozzie & Harriet-type small town, Dennis befriends apparently
normal high school A-student Sue Ann. He fills her head with lies about
his imaginary career as a secret agent. She is thrilled, and makes up
her mind to join him in his further adventures. But first, she takes time
out to calmly shoot her mother to death! This jet-black "who's manipulating
who?" seriocomedy was adapted by Lorenzo Semple Jr.. from Stephen
Geller's novel "She Let Him Continue" and is now regarded as
cult classic sparked by Weld's vivid performance.
