film, directed by
Gus Van Sant, starring
Nicole Kidman and
Matt Dillon
In theory this is loosely based on a true story of a smalltown TV weathergirl, Kidman, who conspires with a local high school boy (Joaquin Phoenix), to commit murder.
Dark humor with surreal, RealTV-like dialogue
Includes cameo by David Cronenberg.
When I saw this in the theater I was the only one laughing, and I laughed a lot.
