Alice Sweet Alice Movie Poster by the most famous movie-picture Painter Mr. Brew, depicting a young woman with a skull as her face, dressed in her first communion dress and wearing the veil, holding with her two gloved hands a large knife pointed downwards towards a face mask, who’s eye is bleeding due to the blade, the title and boarders of the poster are written in red, a white sparkle is coming from the blue background; signs of use, the folds have taken some color away.

Doesn’t this historical “remembering” of a near past awaken in Pasolini’s buccaneering letters, in which he wrote that what "is not loved is doomed to irreparable destruction"? There are still living witnesses who could report "what it was like back then" when the posters of Mr. Brew and other movie artists were in the... Saw the poster and then decided to go to a cinema that has now become a "lost object" in an art history that has not yet been written.

Movie Plot:

In 1961, in New Jersey, divorced mother Catherine Spages visits Father Tom with her two daughters, nine-year-old Karen and twelve-year-old Alice, who both attend St. Michael's Parish Girls' School. Karen is preparing for her First Communion, and Father Tom gives her his mother's crucifix as a gift. A jealous Alice puts on a Halloween mask, frightening Father Tom's housekeeper, Mrs. Tredoni. Alice steals Karen's porcelain doll, scares her, and threatens her if she tells anyone.

On the day of her First Communion, Karen is strangled to death with her candle in the church transeptby a person wearing a Halloween mask and a yellow raincoat; her crucifix is ripped from her neck and her body is set on fire. A nun makes the horrific discovery, disrupting the communion ceremony.

After Karen's funeral, Catherine's ex-husband Dominick begins to investigate her murder independently while Detective Spina handles the case formally. Catherine's sister Annie moves in to help her, though Alice and Annie despise each other. Catherine sends Alice to deliver a rent check to their landlord, the morbidly obese Mr. Alphonso, and he attempts to molest her. Annie is attacked by a masked figure. At the hospital, she claims that Alice tried to kill her. Alice is sent to a psychiatric institution for evaluation.
