Lipstick is an American 1976 rape and revenge drama film directed by Lamont Johnson and starring Margaux and Mariel Hemingway.

As Chris talks to Steve, Gordon begins to fume at the thought of Chris obvious rejection. His hurt soon turns to anger, and he enters her room and smashes a picture of her brother Martin John Bennett Perry, a priest, before throwing himself on top of her. During Chriss struggle to fight him off, Gordon slams her head against one of her bedposts and screams at her to show him where she keeps the lipstick that her face sells to the public. When she tells him it is in her bathroom, he takes her in there and smears it across her face, then forces her to perform fellatio on him to leave the traces of the lipstick on his genitalia. Returning her to her bed, he ties her down with silk scarves, and anally rapes her to the accompaniment of his discordant compositions. Near the end of the ordeal, Kathy returns home from school and walks in on Chris and Gordon, on whom Kathy has a crush, together in bed hurt and embarrassed, Kathy runs out before they see her, and before she can tell what is really going on. Chris hears her leave, and asks Gordon to untie her. He gets up and suggests calling Kathy in to join them and have some fun, but he instead cuts Chris free and leaves. Chris gets up, finds Kathy, and after telling her what really happened, Chris calls the police.Gordon is arrested, but as Chris learns from Carla Bondi Anne Bancroft, the prosecutor assigned to handle the case, Gordons conviction is hardly a sure thing. Only two of 100 rapists serve any jail time, and only 10,000 of the 50,000 rapes that occur each year in California are reported to the police. If Chris wants justice, she will have to testify, and that could mean subjecting herself to a kind of abuse as terrible as the rape itself. Despite Steves fears of what a trial could do to her career, Chris agrees to testify passionately, informing everyone in the room, I want him to die in jail I want them to do it to him in jail Unfortunately for Chris, Carlas worst fears are all realized.
