Confessions Of A Trickbaby

In this semi-sequel to the outrageous dark comedy FREEWAY, White Girl (Natasha Lyonne) is sentenced to prison, but breaks out with her serial killer cellmate, Cyclona (Maria Celedonio). They proceed to tear across the States, leaving a trail of chaos in Tiajuana. Director Matthew Bright returns with another modern fairy tale (loosely based on HANSEL AND GRETEL) even more outlandish than it predecessor. Vincent Gallo (BUFFALO '66) makes an impression as a Mexican transvestite nun with a magical flair in the kitchen.

Critics' reviews (2) of Confessions Of A Trickbaby

The second film (after Freeway) in director Matthew Bright's proposed trilogy of radically reworked fairy tales is so over-the-top, it's halfway down the other side. In this outrageous spin on Hansel and Gretel, Natasha Lyonne and Maria Celedonio play damaged teens who break out of detention and strike out on a murderous road trip to Mexico for a climactic confrontation with transvestite nun Vincent Gallo. Skilfully directed in the style of the sexploitation films it so obviously spoofs, this is a picture many people will loathe, though it could earn cult status with those who appreciate its tongue-in-cheek extravagance.

Freeway II: Confessions of a Trickbaby full title

Anyone who has seen the first film in this series will notice numerous major differences between the two films. While the story line and plot structure are very creative and innovative, the way the story was portrayed was less than commendable. Many parts of the film seem overtly sexual and as if they were created for fetish more than to add to the film. There were multiple parts of the film like this, which made it seem more like pornography than a legitimate film starring females.
