Review of Heavenly Creatures (1994) by Jay Carr for Boston Globe — 14 Jun 2003
Jackson's film is distinguished by the intensity of the girls' secretive relationship. If the busy camera movements used to convey the heady exhilaration of their early encounters are irritating, the sense of claustrophobic immersion in private mysteries is palpable.
Acted with conviction, and directed and written with febrile vibrancy.
