About Sweet Revenge
A young woman with a long rap sheet who steals cars for a living is befriended by a public defender who tries to steer her straight. But her goal is to steal and subsequently sell enough cars (sometimes the same car more than once) to buy a new Ferrari.
Directed by Jerry Schatzberg, Sweet Revenge leans on a strong ensemble — Stockard Channing, Sam Waterston, Franklyn Ajaye — 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 comedy titles of 1976.
