About
In this darkly comedic tale of jealousy, vanity and revenge, Robert Zemenkis’ Death Becomes Her unearths the sinister consequences that lie beneath the farcical quest for eternal youth.
Ageing actress Madeline Ashton (Meryl Streep) is persuaded to take an elixir which brings her eternal life. Her rival for her husband Ernest's (Bruce Willis) affections, Helen Sharp (Goldie Hawn), has taken the same potion, and when the two of them try to kill each other, their bodies prove to be irritatingly indestructible.
Death Becomes Her will screen from a 35mm archival print.
