The Killing of Sister George (1968) Film Review B

The Killing of Sister George
DIRECTOR: Robert Aldrich

BOTTOM LINE:  FIRST LOOK INSIDE A LESBIAN BAR

Beryl Reid is marvelous as “George.” That’s not her name. It’s the name of the character she plays in a beloved long-running BBC series. She is in a lesbian relationship with the much younger Childie (Susannah York), and she thinks that she is about to get canned from the show. Enter Carol Browne as a BBC executive with the hots for Childie, and George cannot get a break.
