A Winter Tan Movie Review 1988

True story of New Yorker Maryse Holder (Burroughs), who's an alcoholic, drug-addicted, promiscuous one-time teacher who has decided to lose herself in the degradations Acapulco has to offer. Holder's eventually murdered by a pimp and her letters to a friend are posthumously published as "Give Sorrow Words." Self-destruction as its worst.
