Tochter der Nacht

And I believe George Parker was paying perfect attention when he wrote his review. I found myself wondering two things when I saw this movie. Why did Jane Alexander come out Acting Retirement and why is HBO airing this terrible 20 year old, made for TV film. As for a description of the movie, it's pretty much all in the title, yet with a irritating white wash of the subject matter that would annoy the most avid Golden Girl's fan. It is obvious that the film makers had little understanding of material,for you get the impression that the director's only research prior to making the film was renting Pretty Woman on video. The writing is poor, yet the all the actors tear through their dialoque as if making television history with the most shocking and ground breaking material.

The HBO executives should made to watch this film, and afterwards, unload it to lifetime for a very discounted price.

I just watched this on HBO...and, I gotta say, I like it...its a pretty good movie, and fairly entertaining....although the acting was pretty poor in a lot of parts...but, its a good movie.this a movie that i'm sure you can see on lifetime.

This movie is about a mom, and her daughter....and her daughter runs away from home, and then meets the wrong guy, and gets involved in drugs, and prostitution.

if you do see this movie, you will most likely be able to tell that it was made in 1990, by the music, and hair styles, etc.

This comes off as pretentious with an annoying feminist message. Mothers can save the day and their children with no need of a father. Jane Alexander's one of the most bland,boring actresses I've ever seen. Her character is more ditzy who seems like she cares about activism only for the attention,craving it. Roxana Zal,matching her in blandness,comes across as the good girl gone bad with noting to do really. The real message here is:Folks don't tell your stories to the media or they'll keep making trash like this.

From the Wholesome Full slanted House In San Francisco to being a P. I. M. P. in the streets.

I thought it was weak and PG in terms of knowing what really goes on in the streets

What was this movie about?:

A girl turns to the streets for comfort. Her annoying mom tries to save her.

But can she turn an umm O into a nun?

The story and production overview:

A good movie for what it is but failed to show more. They didn't show much of the PIMP or the issues tricks face. It was just she agrees to sell her self, she did a line and that's it.

The Pimp seemed like a really nice guy. The girl seemed really taken care of to be honest. Then the only altercation she had was at the end. WHAT?!!? Then the movie ends.

They dropped the dough on this one.

Highlight: The girl had a phatty

Villain: I want to say the mom because I found her annoying. The Pimp was very nice and calm

Love it? Okay? Meh? Or Hash?: It was okay though they could have added a bit more street conflict.

Last Words: It was back to San Francisco after this.

If you think a movie with a title like "Daughter of the Streets" just has to be a gritty good-girl-goes-bad story similar to George C. Scott's gut wrenching "Hardcore", think again. This lame TV flick tells of an oh so perfect mother (Alexander) who has some awful disease which is so debilitating she can't support her family so her oh so perfect teenage daughter (Zal, who was wonderful in "Table for Five") starts to get poor grades in school, then smokes, then drinks, then dates a pimp, and then somehow just sort of starts selling her body (the next logical step, right?) curbside so she can feed her family. This unseemly turn of events inspires the oh so perfect mom to have some kind of miraculous remission so she can begin a campaign to get kids off the streets thereby saving the day. This super sanitized soap opera quality tripe has about as much to do with reality as it does with entertainment. Just about nothing. (C-)
