Kill Me Later (2001)
10/10
Acting puts this dark romance over the top
14 January 2002
This is a fairly subtle, intelligent, low-budget ride that's propelled by very good acting and some mother-of-invention film work. Selma Blair does a fine job as a young woman who has had enough and is ready to kill herself at the beginning of the movie, and Max Beesley is both funny and caring as the bank robber who promises to kill her later. Watch it on DVD, and you can enjoy the movie, then listen to the director and producer (both women) talk about the things they had to do to get the movie made on their small budget. If you're into movie-making, it's interesting to hear them talk about the 9 years they kicked the script around and the dozens of drafts for the script and that they finally decided not to sell it when they had a buyer, because they wanted to make it themselves.
