#11. Breaking the Girl – Jamie Babbit
Described by Jamie Babbit as a “genre-trashy fun; gratuitous girl-on-girl make-out scenes and three-inch heels”, Breaking the Girl which is based on a screenplay by Mark Distefano and American Psycho‘s Guinevere Turner stars indie actors Madeline Zima, Shawn Ashmore and Agnes Bruckner. Having presented a pair of short films almost a decade back (her 2002 short “Stuck,” was a winner of the 2002 Sundance Film Festival’s Special Mention Jury Prize), Babbit’s (middle person in random set pic above) latest would be a good fit for a Park City at Midnight showing.
Gist: When university student Sara (Bruckner) is slandered by a hostile classmate, she is befriended by the manipulative Alex (Zima) who proposes the perfect, untraceable crime – to kill each other’s arch enemies. When Alex actually goes through with it, Sara finds herself being framed for murder.
Producers: Unknown
