Suicide

Two men verbally enact the chronology of an actor’s failed romantic connections and repeated suicide attempts. The two men maintain an intimate physical proximity, but as the film progresses, the actor becomes increasingly despondent, burdened by the process of reliving his past.

Directed by Andy Warhol, Suicide leans on a strong ensemble — Ronald Tavel, rock bradett — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1965.
