Sisters (1973)
In Brian De Palma's Hitchcock-like suspense horror
thriller with a Bernard Herrmann score:
- the opening shots of a fetus during the title credits
- the dual, Siamese twin characters -- French-Canadian
fashion model Danielle/Dominique Breton (both portrayed by Margot
Kidder) - one being a murderous psychopath - and a birthday cake
inscribed with both of their names, bought by "colored" TV
game-show player and advertising salesman Philip Woode (Lisle Wilson)
who had just had a one-night stand with Danielle in her fold-out
living-room sofabed in her Staten Island apartment
- the split-screen scene of a nosy and crusading reporter
Grace Collier (Jennifer Salt) in an Rear-Window-ish
apartment across the way witnessing the brutal stabbing murder of
Philip by the deranged twin during a birthday celebration
