" Saturday brings the silly, overbaked melodrama of crime and passion "Fanny Straw Hair" (1984) ()"〕 ((スペイン語:Fanny Pelopaja)) (a.k.a. ''Á coups de Crosse'') is a 1984 crime thriller film, directed by Vicente Aranda and starring Fanny Cottençon and Bruno Cremer. The film, a Spanish and French production, was based on the novel ''Prótesis'', written by Andreu Martin. The plot follows an attractive blonde outcast who devises an elaborate plan to avenge the humiliation she suffered at the hands of a policeman who killed her boyfriend and smashed her teeth with the butt of a gun. ==Plot== Estefania Sánchez, known as Fanny Pelopaja for her bleach blond hair, is a cold-blooded woman who recently has been released from jail after serving a three-year sentence. She has built up a new life for herself working in a gas station. However, she has been waiting all this time to take revenge from a corrupt and brutal police officer, Andrés Gallego. A phone call from one of her old cronies informs her that Andrés is working in Barcelona as a security guard for an armored car company. Fanny leaves everything behind and takes the road back to Barcelona. A flashback tells the story of Fanny and Andrés three years before. He caught her stealing in a department store in which he worked as an undercover security officer. Although she paid for the stolen items and was let off without being charged, Andrés, a corrupt policeman, pressed Fanny to have sex with him. A married man with a wife he despised and two teenage children who do not pay attention to him, Andrés quickly became obsessed with Fanny, and they met regularly in the same hotel room for casual sex. An unwilling love-hate relationship built up between them. Andrés willingly guided Fanny in a risky plan to help Fanny's boyfriend, Manuel, nicknamed The Cat, to escape from the hospital where he was recuperating after being injured in jail. Fanny smuggled a gun in the hospital room between her legs. With the gun in hand, Fanny and Manuel managed to escape from the hospital, but they killed two policemen. They found refuge from the authorities in an abandoned house in the outskirts of the city. There, a jealous dispute between Andrés and Manuel ended up with Andrés shooting Manuel in the head and killing him. Grief-stricken, Fanny, told Andrés how much she hated him. Andrés brutally assaulted her, knocking out her teeth, causing her to have to wear dentures from then on. Because of his violation of police regulations and his abusive treatment of Fanny, Andrés was thrown out of the police force and spent some time in a mental institution recuperating from a nervous breakdown. He now works as a guard for an armored car company. Back in Barcelona, Fanny is reunited with her old friends, Julián and his girlfriend, La Nena, Manuel's sister. Their plan is to rob the armored car that Andrés is guarding. While Julián is interested only in the money, both Fanny and La Nena want to kill Andrés for revenge. The plans work out, and Fanny exacts revenge on Andrés, but does not kill him. A mistake, because he is soon back in full force against her and her companions. After brutally beating Julián and threatening to rape La Nena with his gun, Julián reveals Fanny's whereabouts. She has been waiting for Andrés all along in the same hotel room where they used to get together in the past. When he arrives, she is ready for him. They aim their guns at each other but neither dares to shoot. When the police arrive, they find them naked in bed, Andrés stabbed fatally stabbed in the back. Fanny is still alive, but in a catatonic state from which she never recovers. Ultimately she is institutionalized in a mental asylum. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fanny Straw Hair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
