Miriam (2007)
In 1945, 21 year old Truman Capote wrote the harrowing short story ‘Miriam’ which launched his career. This film is a faithful adaptation of that tale starring Marian Seldes. Mrs. Miller is an elderly widow living a quiet and lonely existence in her Manhattan apartment. One day she meets a precocious little girl named Miriam whose behavior becomes more and more shocking as Mrs. Miller becomes increasingly disturbed by her. MIRIAM is a tale of a woman whose mundane existence becomes exciting and frightening as she discovers the truth about ‘Miriam.’

Also of note, this short story was filmed once before back in 1969 for a trilogy of Capote stories called, oddly enough; 'Trilogy'. [ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0165996/ ]

This version starred Susan Dunfree, who was 13 at the time, as the titular 'Miriam'. [ http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0242217/ ]:

Anyway I'm trying to trace a copy of both of these versions as I type.. :)

Thanks for bringing this wonderfully eerie-sounding movie to our attention, Rich!

kev.

Another little side note is that I've had a hard back copy of Truman Capote's 'The Grass Harp' for years and NEVER knew anything about the short story 'Miriam'. :think I'm going to have to dig it up and read this one, for sure!! :)
