Manuel Puig's brilliant Kiss of the Spider Woman is now a film by the internationally renowned director Hector Babenco. The film had its world premiere at the 1985 Cannes Film Festival, where William Hurt was named best actor for his performance as Molina.
In this "extremely moving tale" (Newsweek), Puig keenly depicts and examines the relationship between Molina, a homosexual window dresser, and Valentin, a fierce revolutionary, two men imprisoned in the same cell in a country in Latin America.
"In exceptional form, Puig weaves his own shimmering web around a classic theme."
— Newsweek.
