GIRLS TOWN (1996) New 4K RestorationQ&A with actress/screenwriter Anna Grace
GIRLS TOWN burst upon the scene at Sundance in 1996, winning several awards and dazzling audiences and critics with its bold portrayal of irreverent young women coming of age. One of the first movies about the secret shame of rape, it celebrates their zigzag path to empowerment as gleeful acts of revenge give way to something much deeper. The screenplay was created by director Jim McKay in collaboration with cast members Lili Taylor, Bruklin Harris and Anna Grace. GIRLS TOWN also includes standout performances by Guillermo Diaz, Michael Imperioli, Stephanie Berry, Tom Gilroy, John Ventimiglia and Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor (recently Oscar®-nominated for Best Supporting Actress in KING RICHARD) and an all-female soundtrack featuring Queen Latifah, PJ Harvey, Roxanne Shante, Salt-N-Pepa and others. (Note adapted from IndieCollect.)
