When a novelist loses her man to a movie star and former friend, she winds up in a psychiatric hospital. Years later, she returns home to confront the now-married couple, looking radiant. Her ex-husband's new wife wants to know her secret and discovers that she has been taking a mysterious drug which grants eternal life to the person who drinks it. The actress follows suit, but she discovers that immortality has a price in this cult-classic dark comedy.

Jawbreaker
1999 | 86 min. | Color | DCP
Directed by: Darren Stein
Cast: Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart, Julie Benz, and Tatyana Ali
The beautiful ones. The flawless four. Everyone wanted to be them. You know 'em. They went to your school, too. There's Courtney "Satan-in-heels" Shayne (Rose McGowan) and her pawn, Marcie Fox (Julie Benz), a legend in her own mind. Then there's angelic Julie Freedman (Rebecca Gayheart), doomed to be popular because of her looks, and lastly, the teen dream herself, Elizabeth Purr. When an ordinary kidnapping prank leaves the future prom queen dead, a deadly sweet prank leads to a cover-up makeover in this edgy and unpredictable comedy.
