Winner of the 1991 Sundance Grand Jury Prize, Todd Haynes' controversial masterpiece is the most fervently debated fiIm of the 1990s and a trailblazing Iandmark of Queer Cinema. The first feature directed by the Oscar nominated fiImmaker of Far From Heaven, l'm Not There and the HBO Mini-series MiIdred Pierce, this ground breaking American indie is a thriIling work of immense visuaI invention.
lnspired by the writings of Jean Genet, Poison deftIy interweaves a trio of transgressive taIes that build toward a devastating cIimax: "Hero", shot in mock tabloid-TV styIe, teIls a bizarre story of suburban patricide and a miraculous flight from justice; ""Horror," fiImed like a delirious 1950s B-movie meIodrama, is a gothic taIe of a mad sex experiment gone awry; "Homo," explores the obsessive sexual relationship between two prison inmates. A runaway hit which made national headlines when it was attacked by conservative figures incIuding Dick Armey, Ralph Reed and minister Donald Wildmon, Poison is audacious, unforgettable and wiIdIy entertaining. |
