classic 90 time and this be one of those movie that i kind of remember see on tv five million time a a kid . i always love watch it and it have the most incredible effect and i think it be so funny . i be such a deranged 7 year old i guess . but still to this day and i really enjoy watch death become her . it have a very clever story and amazing effect and three great actor represent bruce willis and meryl streep and goldie hawn . who say dark comedy can not be good . death become her show the true competitive side of woman that scar most of the human race and how far we will go to be the hot and the smartest and the kindest and etc . but also the whole essence of eternal youth and beauty and living forever and and death become her handle the subject very well . actress madeline ashton and writer helen sharp be longtime rival . helen life fall apart when glamorous madeline steal helen fiancé and plastic surgeon ernest menville and and marries him . seven year later and helen be now an obese and depressed woman and and be arrest and place in a mental institution . obsess with get revenge against madeline and she struggle in the institution with healing . madeline career on broadway end and and 14 year later she be still struggle with her fading look and bygone act career . ernest and now an alcoholic and miserable in his marriage and have be reduce to work a a high end mortician . when madeline and helen meet again at helen book sign party and helen appear miraculously rejuvenate and thin and and youthful . madeline be first dumbfound then jealous . a part of helen plan and she play both madeline and ernest and tell them each she have never blame them for her ruin love life . madeline resort to the aid of the mysterious lisle von rhoman and who claim she have discover the secret of eternal youth . madeline purchase the potion and drink it and and be delight to see her body visibly lose the sign of age a she watch in a mirror and leave her thin and firm and and young . helen and meanwhile and seduces ernest and reveals to him a detailed and foolproof plot to kill madeline . ernest kill madeline and madeline be still alive madeline kill helen helen be still alive death have become them . the film be flaw no doubt and it should have develop the character a bit more and we never really understood why madeline and helen be friend in the first place a it seem like they have always hat each other and they could have just explore the friendship a little further . as well a why we should care what be happen to these pretty horrible character . but still this be one of those film that for some reason keep me watch it every time it pop up on tv . i think it be a lot of fun and have some good laugh and especially the fight between madeline and helen and they discover that there really no point to inflict physical pain but keep go at it with each other . this be a recommendation to those who have a strange sense of humor and it something only a few will get . positive .
