TO DIE FOR (1995)
Based on an outrageous but true story, Gus Van Sant's brilliant satire of America's obsession with celebrity features a breakout performance by Nicole Kidman. She portrays a conniving weather girl turned murderess whose "performance" in front of the TV cameras is almost as haunting and hilarious as Kidman's real performance in front of the movie camera. The first-rate cast also includes Matt Dillon, Joaquin Phoenix, Casey Affleck and Illeana Douglas, plus a sly cameo by David Cronenberg. DIR Gus Van Sant; SCR Buck Henry, from the novel by Joyce Maynard; PROD Laura Ziskin. U.S./UK, 1995, color, 106 min. RATED R
