The Love Crimes of Gillian Guess
Director: Bruce McDonald
Writer: A. Fraser
Cast: Joely Collins, Hugh Dillon, Ben Bass
United States Premiere
Take a bit of lunacy, mix in a smattering of Pulp Fiction, add lessons from Over The Top Acting 101 and you have "The Love Crimes of Gillian Guess." Surrealistic and camp, this film flopped with me. Not that it didn’t try.
Gillian Guess will do anything for a fix at fame. Even to sleeping with an accused murderer where she’s on the Jury. She then battles wits with a Jerry Springer wanna-be and things go down hill from there. Fame comes at a price and she’s willing to ante up.
The one bright spot for me was meeting young Jessica Amlee (played young Gillian). This little trouper carried her scene whenever she was on screen. She has a great future in celluloid – if she wants it.
Rating: 1.5 out of 5 Feathers
