Mirror, Mirror (Johnson)
Kitty Johnson
Roy, is this a dream?
A dream, a story, high school, insanity.
It's hard to tell sometimes, isn't it?
A high school homecoming dance in the South.
In the bathroom Gretchen Black, the most popular girl in school, lights a cigarette and asks the mirror on the wall who's the fairest of them all.
The mirror shows her a horrible witch instead of her own reflection.
Gretchen puts the cigarette out in her armpit and the witch disappears.
Moments later a mysterious new girl named Rose White arrives at Homecoming.
She has no hips or chest to speak of, but her skin shines white as snow and her lips are as red as the rose.
She's after Gretchen's boyfriend, Badger Biers.
In this dark comedy, based on Snow White , ten teenagers love, lose, betray and revenge each other over one autumnal weekend in a kingdom far, far away.
It is a precarious landscape where magic lurks behind make-up, mirrors, and memories.
