The Stranger Beside Me
2003, 86 minutes, Rated M
The Stranger Beside Me is an eyewitness account from the darkest depths imaginable, the intimate story of a friend who became a stranger, and the stranger who became one of the most notorious serial killers in history - Ted Bundy.
Ann Rule (Emmy and Golden Globe winner Barbara Hershey) is an ex-cop working the suicide hotlines in Seattle. To make ends meet, she indulges in another obsession - writing true-crime stories. She has a daughter, a fulfilling life, and a good friend named Ted Bundy (Golden Globe nominee Billy Campbell), a handsome and intelligent charmer who's just been accepted into law school.
Eighteen years after the charismatic, troubled Ted Bundy befriended Ann Rule, he was executed for his horrific crimes. Only one woman, who shared a friendship and ultimately his final interview behind prison walls, could tell his story from such a unique and provocative angle.
