Good Men, Good Women

She has the role of another lifetime.

1995108 min7.0 / 10

A layered, formally experimental thriller that weaves together present-day paranoia, romantic memory, and cinematic artifice to explore identity and the blurred boundaries between performance and reality.

An actress preparing to play in a historical epic is terrorized by someone faxing her pages from her stolen diary; has colorful flashbacks of her affair with a now-deceased man; and imagines black-and-white film-within-a-film scenes of the movie she is about to appear in.
