DEATH BECOMES HER
ROBERT ZEMECKIS | USA, 1992, 1h44 | DCP
Starring: Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, Bruce Willis…

Madeline Ashton, an egocentric actress obsessed with her youth, has always stolen her friend Helen's boyfriends. Fourteen years after marrying Ernest, Helen's former fiancé, the two women meet again. As Madeline sees her beauty decline, Helen plots her revenge. They soon discover a mysterious potion that can grant them eternal youth… at the cost of giving up death forever. This leads to a macabre and jubilant duel between the two rivals, portrayed by Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn, while Bruce Willis plays Ernest, their hapless accomplice.

A cult black comedy and fantasy film, it is also a true laboratory of special effects. It won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects in 1993 and innovated with the use of photorealistic human skin texture, a technology that would soon be reused in Jurassic Park.

In partnership with the AGE-C program (Ageing and Gender in European Cinema).
