Presents
The Honeymoon Killers
Plot:
In the early 1950s, Martha Beck, who lives with her slightly senile mother, is
the head nurse in a Mobile, Alabama hospital. She is bitter about her life, she
not having male companionship in large part because she is overweight, while her
bitterness in turn does not endear her to people. She is initially angry with
her best friend, Bunny, for signing her up to a lonely hearts club, but
eventually decides to give it a try. Through it, she meets Ray Fernandez, a
suave Spanish immigrant living in New York, he who contacted Martha as the first
through the club. After Ray's trip to Mobile to meet Martha, they fall in love.
Upon a subsequent visit Martha makes to Ray in New York - which leads to her
being fired in part for her time off work - he decides to be up front with her:
that she is not only not his "first" but that he is really a con man who,
primarily through the club, seduces then bilks lonely women of their money.
Pretending to be his sister to prospective targets, Martha decides to join Ray
on his cons as they travel the country together. Their differences in style
causes problems, Martha who is more direct, more impatient and more violent, she
who is the first to consider killing to get what they want. But what has the
potential to be the primary cause of their downfall is Martha's jealousy over
Ray even pretending to seduce other women, let alone any time he may have sex
with them.
