Spicuzza answered some questions about the film.
Black dahlia murder movie movie#
At the heart of Night Rain is a filmmaker’s struggle to make her own movie about the Black Dahlia, as dictated by an “angel producer” (demon?) with definite ideas about the direction of this neo-noir.Ī trailer from Night Rain goes live on Tuesday, April 21: It’s also about the danger of being stalked, trolled and otherwise pursued by unwanted admirers. Night Rain is inspired by the frustrations of getting an indie film made on a tenuous budget-Spicuzza is familiar with that scenario from her previous film, The Scarapist (2014), which dramatized the dangerous edge of wacko psychological theory. The Black Dahlia’s enduring architype of depravity is at the heart of the latest film by Milwaukee expatriate/LA resident Jeanne Marie Spicuzza.
The incident inspired crime fiction for decades to come, notably James Elroy’s novel and its screen adaptation by Brian De Palma. The killing of aspiring actress Elizabeth Short was salacious material for newspapers and pulp magazines when her mutilated body was discovered in 1947. The “Black Dahlia” murder-mutilation was a crime story-that exploded into a media-spectacle.
