To Die For New Release

An acerbic look at pop celebrity and the drive for fame, this wickedly funny black comedy from scripter Buck Henry and director Gus Van Sant stars Nicole Kidman as a media-obsessed, would-be TV journalist in a small New England town. Eager for success and unwilling to settle for husband Matt Dillon’s vision of family life, Kidman seduces a high school student and convinces him to murder her “abusive” spouse. With Joaquin Phoenix, Illeana Douglas. 106 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English DTS HD 5.1 Master Audio; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary by Van Sant, others; deleted scenes; theatrical trailer; essay.
