She's No Angel

About This Movie

She's No Angel dives into a bizarre and darkly comedic premise that doesn't hold back. The tone is a strange mix of absurdity and poignancy, as you see this young girl maneuver through the chaos of her forced confinement. The pacing might feel uneven, but it adds to the unsettling atmosphere of the mental institution. While performances are varied, the lead often stands out with a blend of innocence and cunning. There's a certain rawness to the practical effects and settings that gives it that gritty 70s feel. It’s a film that’s hard to categorize but ultimately leaves you thinking about familial betrayal and the lengths people will go for money.

This film has a pretty scarce existence on home video, with limited releases over the years. Its quirky themes and offbeat humor have intrigued a niche audience, making it a curiosity among collectors. While it may not be the first title people think of from the 70s comedy scene, its unique take on serious subjects means collectors keep an eye out for any re-releases or special editions that might surface.
