Tabloid

Friday, July 15 - Tuesday, September 27, 2011

The unlikely subject of the Oscar-winning Morris’s (The Fog of War, The Thin Blue Line) latest is the inimitable Joyce McKinney — a Miss Wyoming with an IQ of 168 whose single-minded devotion to love led her across the globe, into jail and onto the front pages of 1970s tabloids. Wildly entertaining, laugh-out-loud funny and unsettlingly bizarre, this is a story so unbelievable — from kidnap cottages and manacled Mormons to risqué photography, magic underwear and celestial sex, not to mention a Korean cloning lab — it could only be true.
