Synopsis
Single White Female (1992) is a psychological thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Barbet Schroeder and starring Bridget Fonda and Jennifer Jason Leigh. Allie Jones has just split from her fiancé and posts an ad for a roommate in her Manhattan apartment. Quiet, timid Hedy seems like the answer.
The two women grow close fast — swapping clothes, sharing old wounds, filling each other's silences. Then the details start to shift. Hedy cuts her hair to match Allie's. Starts talking like her. Dressing like her. When Allie pushes back, she finds that Hedy's idea of friendship doesn't leave room for boundaries.
Based on the novel by John Lutz, the film runs 108 tight minutes and rests on the tension between Fonda's restraint and Jennifer Jason Leigh's raw, off-kilter performance — the role that earned Leigh an Independent Spirit Award. Stream Single White Female (1992) online on iFILM.
