ABOUT THE FILM: In Spanish with English subtitles. In this alternately macabre and mirthful thriller, based on a true-crime story, renowned Mexican director Arturo Ripstein brings a stylish audacity to the tale of the “Lonely Hearts Killers,” a couple who, in the 1940s, posed as brother and sister to lure and murder unsuspecting widows. Featuring performances both sympathetic and stomach-churning by Regina Orozco and Daniel Giménez Cacho, DEEP CRIMSON is a wild update of the same events that inspired Leonard Kastle’s THE HONEYMOON KILLERS.
