Lipstick

1h 29m • Crime, Thriller • 1976

AroView: A trashy yet compulsive thriller in which a fashion model (Margaux Hemingway) is raped by a seemingly benign admirer, who dabbles in bizarre electronic music. When he is let off scot free, she decides to take her own deadly revenge.

This controversial film pushes the exploitative elements but is not without a conscience or style, akin to the works of Brian De Palma. Mariel Hemingway especially impresses as the victim’s eye-witness kid sister.
