Will You Love Me Tomorrow

I watched this film so long ago and yet I still remember it. I suppose, like the other people who have commented before me, it must have really made an impression otherwise I wouldn't be here now, adding my opinion on a film made 20 years ago and shown, apparently, only once! Joanne Whalley was a great choice for the part of Jackie because she always had such an innocent appearance - the big eyes, the trusting gaze; you really could believe she hadn't been out in the big wide world since she was a child. Likewise with Tilly Vosburgh - she's always had such a 'hard' look about her, she fitted the part of Jackie's tough and worldly-wise friend really well.

I remember at the time, a friend commenting that she thought the character of Jackie had been based on Mary Bell (who had also been in prison for murder since she was a child). Whether this is true or not I don't know but it certainly did seem possible.

A very compelling film that I'd very much like to see again.
