Directed by Alan Rudolph • 1978 • United States
Starring Geraldine Chaplin, Anthony Perkins, Moses Gunn

Geraldine Chaplin delivers a chillingly effective performance as an unstable woman just out of prison and hell-bent on getting even with the husband (Anthony Perkins) who abandoned her years ago. Produced by Robert Altman, this spellbinding homage to the female-driven noir melodramas of the 1940s à la MILDRED PIERCE amps up their frayed-nerve energy and seething sense of unrest.
