The film revolves around the brutal rape (shown in vivid detail) of a model and the subsequent court case that makes much of her professional life as provocation. Real life model Margaux Hemingway takes the lead part, and you would be right in assuming her acting skills don’t match her looks. Comes off as a made for TV movie, though it does have its exploitative charm though there is no camp comedy value and little gore that often accompany such films. A ludicrously coincidental encounter between the rapist and the victims little sister is salaciously loathsome. The ending is ridiculous in a twee way that would have been enraging in any movie that relied less on emotional sadism.
3.5/5
