Heavenly Creatures
Movie: Heavenly Creatures (1994)
Watched with: Maggie
The only part of this I'd seen before was the part where the girls imagine they're being chased around by a CGI Orson Welles and then end up making out while her creepy journal voiceovers, so my expectations were kind of high.
The movie wasn't bad, but that was basically the best part.
My problem with it was that I never understood why they want to kill Pauline's mother. Juliet's mother betrayed the family and is forcing them to be separated; Pauline's just questions whether a publisher would accept their crazy novel and won't let her daughter take off to South Africa.
Obviously they're kinda nuts, but this whole thing must have made sense to them, and by the same token it seems like it should be made to make sense to us.
Weird fact: Kate Winslet's character is now a successful mystery writer. A convicted murderer writing murder stories!
