The Big Bird Cage
No upcoming showtimes scheduled.
Director: Jack Hill
1972 / 88min / DCP
Reunited with Hill, whose 1971 The Big Doll House had made her a star, Grier made a triumphant return to the “women in prison” subgenre in The Big Bird Cage as Blossom, plotting with Sid Haig’s guerilla leader to liberate the ladies of a women’s prison where the inmates are brutalized by Andrés Centenara’s wicked warden. A miracle of low-budget invention and anti-authoritarian zeal, with Grier at her most viciously seductive.
