“About empty lives, acute anguish, Hollywood, and Hell.”
—Pauline Kael
In the blinding glare of Hollywood, Tuesday Weld drifts through a wasteland of fame and emptiness in Frank Perry’s haunting vision of Tinseltown’s broken dreams. A razor-sharp descent into existential despair adapted from Joan Didion’s novel by Didion and husband-collaborator John Gregory Dunne. Co-starring Anthony Perkins. New 4K restoration.
