“The Love Crimes of Gillian Guess” is a surreal trip through one woman’s past. Gillian has always wanted a little bit more than she got — more attention in school, a more stable home life, more love, more wealth. When she made it onto the jury of a high-profile murder case and slept with the accused, she got her 15 minutes of fame, but that’s not enough. Now she’s on Bobby Tomahawk’s sleazy, late-late night talk show and he is getting her to tell everything.
With little allegiance to conventional storytelling and a sense of the bizarre, the filmmakers take us on a tour of Gillian’s sexual history, giving us little in the way of hard facts and a lot in the way of her state of mind. This is a strange portrait of a not-so-unusual woman.
