To Die For
“You aren’t really anyone in America if you’re not on TV.”
Based on Joyce’s Maynard novel, this quirky tale explores the nature of celebrity and the extraordinary lengths that one woman will go to get ahead and become a national celebrity. Fifteen minutes of fame was never going to be enough for Suzanne (Nicole Kidman – Moulin Rouge). Married to local restaurant owner Larry Maretto (Matt Dillon – The Big Town), all she ever wanted was to be a high-flying anchorwoman on network TV. Blessed with more determination than ability, Suzanne plans her way to the top and will do absolutely anything to achieve her goals. As her ambition increases, her grip on reality starts to slide and drifts into a fantasy world where celebrity is the only benchmark of truth, and where there is no place for the laid-back Larry. Suzanne seduces young junkie Jimmy (Joaquin Phoenix – Gladiator), until he is obsessed enough with her to do whatever she wants. But just how far will she go?
A highly stylised and edgy thriller from the director of Good Will Hunting and Elephant, To Die For contains memorable performances from its all-star cast. It won Nicole Kidman six accolades including the Empire Film Award for Best Actress (1996) and London Critic’s Circle Award for Best Actress (1996).
