An aging lesbian actress (Beryl Reid) explodes into hysteria when faced with the prospect of being written out of the soap opera that made her a household name and the disintegration of her longtime relationship with a younger woman in Robert Aldrich’s adaptation of the hit play. Famously given an X rating solely for its lesbian subject matter — despite featuring no explicit sex or nudity — THE KILLING OF SISTER GEORGE is a fascinating example of both Hollywood homophobia and exquisite camp.
