Mrs. Harris (film)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Mrs Harris is a 2006 television film, starring Annette Bening and Ben Kingsley, directed by Phyllis Nagy.

It is based on a sensational 1980 media event, in which famed cardiologist Herman Tarnower, author of The Scarsdale Diet, met a particularly brutal end at the hands of his jilted lover, Jean Harris.

The film, Bening, Kingsley and supporting actresses Cloris Leachman and Ellen Burstyn all received Emmy nominations. The nomination of Burstyn, who appears on screen for less than 15 seconds and speaks just 38 words, led to significant controversy about the validity of the Emmy nomination process. [1]

Kingsley and Bening have also been nominated for acting awards at the 64th Golden Globe Awards.

The story was also the subject of a fictional musical for which Kramer received a Tony on Seinfeld. The name of the musical was "Scarsdale Surprise."
