The Killing of Sister George

T1500675891
This dark adult comedy follows actress June Buckridge as she discovers that Sister George, the much-loved character she plays in the popular radio soap opera Applehurst, is about to be killed off. Already volatile and difficult to work with, June's behaviour becomes increasingly paranoid to the consternation of her live-in companion, Childie, and her employer, Mrs Croft. First seen in London's West End in 1965 and later filmed under the same title, The Killing of Sister George still packs a powerful satiric punch.
