The new film, "Heavenly Creatures" tells the story of two teenage girls, so caught up in an intense friendship that they murder the mother of one of them, when she tries to seperate the two. It's set in New Zealand during the 1950s and based on a true story. We feature a previous interview Terry did with writer ANNE PERRY. It was recently revealed that PERRY was one of those young girls, was convicted of murder, and spent time in prison. She's now a popular mystery writer in Britian. (ORIGINAL Broadcast from 9/21/94). In the second half of the show we feature interviews with two individuals involved in the film.
