The Boy Who Cried Bitch is a 1991 Americanindependentdrama film directed byJuan Jose Campanella and starringHarley Cross,Karen Young,Jason Biggs (in his first speaking role),Jesse Bradford andAdrien Brody. It was Campanella'sfeature film debut. It was based on real events.
The story focuses on Dan Love (Harley Cross), a young boy withmisdiagnosed (or undiagnosed) mental condition(s), who slowly plunges the life of his mother, Candice (Karen Young), into an unbridledchaos.
Much of the filming was done at the McGovern residence inBronxville.
Campanella said that the script was mostly based on the real life of screenwriterCatherine May Levin.
Originally exhibited at theBoston Film Festival in 1991, the film contained analternate ending. It was never given to theMPAA for examination, and thus remains unrated.
It was followed by a semi-sequel calledThe Boy Who Cried Bitch: The Adolescent Years (2007), without the participation of many of the crew members of the original film, with the exception of scriptwriter Catherine May Levin.[1]
