TITLE |
Ballad of the Sad Café, The (1991) |
|
NOTES |
Strange film
set in the American south. The British actress, |
|
Redgrave,
plays the lead part of a spinsterish woman who |
|
dominates a
small town. The British actor, Simon Callow, |
|
directs for
the first time and the Indian Ismail Merchant |
|
produces.
All have excellent credentials but the film |
|
apparently
doesn't gel. Cork Hubbert plays her cousin, a |
|
dwarf who
arrives on the scene to prepare the way for the |
|
return of
her ex-husband . |
|
From novella
by Carson McCullers and play by Edward Albee |
