MURDER AND MURDER

Yvonne Rainer | 113 min | United States | 1997

Rainer’s last feature is also one of her most personal, inspired by the lows and highs of a breast cancer diagnosis in the early 1990s, and the surprise of a burgeoning lesbian relationship. The latter is playfully refracted through a comic love story about two women from very different backgrounds.
