Jessica Lange (Tootsie) delivers an exhilarating, unforgettable performance as Frances Farmer, the notorious 1930s movie star whose impassioned opinions and outspoken behavior created scandal throughout the industry. But when she was betrayed by the studio system and committed to a mental asylum by her domineering mother (Kim Stanley, Séance on a Wet Afternoon), Frances descended into a madness that shook the world. Her story is shocking, disturbing, compelling...and true. Also starring Sam Shepard (Fool for Love) and nominated for two Academy Awards® for the year 1982—Best Actress (Lange) and Best Supporting Actress (Stanley)—Frances is a dramatic triumph, as harrowing as it is heartbreaking.
