Hysterical Blindness (2002)
1987. In de drukke, rokerige bars van Bayonne, New Jersey gaan twee oude vriendinnen, Debby en Beth, op zoek naar vertier. Maar wie zou kunnen vermoeden dat Beth (Juliette Lewis), die opzichtig gemaquilleerde meid met haar getoupeerde haar en nauwsluitende witte jurkje, een alleenstaande moeder is? Of dat haar vriendin Debby (Uma Thurman), ondanks haar uitdagende uiterlijk en de op haar lijf geschilderde designerjeans, in wezen een erg eenzame vrouw is, wanhopig op zoek naar de eeuwige liefde? De romantische liefde uit de liedjes. De liefde, waar mannen blijkbaar helemaal anders tegen aankijken. Hysterical Blindness is een bitterzoet drama met briljante vertolkingen en rake typeringen
