Dans les griffes de la mode

Sad to watch things fall apart. Lots of fashion world cameos for those who are into it, but the writing and story made it difficult for me to watch. With American Psycho, one of the worst this year for me (out of about 40 films so far).

I hope there are people who will enjoy this film, and it seemed like people had fun making it. The best parts for me were the choreographed bits at the start.

In the knowing dialogue, the bitchy jokes and the campy fairy-tale story arcs, this seems like an insider film that will only appeal to status-conscious gay fashionistas.

Some supporting characters were fun in their venality. But no one was really FUNNY.

I wanted to tap the lead actors on the shoulder and tell them to run and don't look back. It was like watching someone fall down the stairs for an hour and a half.

Sorry, but it's not a winner.

i love Dominique Swain, really i do , but David Deblinger is a much more interesting charactor in this movie. it's not the 1st time. he was the most interesting charactor in "Kiss Me,Guido". Who couldn't resist a man who doesn't go by a name but a symbol and is referred to as just "the wack job?" What i don't get about Intern is, why is this girl an intern at a fashion magazine? she doesn't seem to be that into fashion. and the ending was the most prodictable thing EVER! joan rivers and kathy griffin were very annoying. if it wasn't for the few laughs i get from David and Ben Pullen, intern would be the biggest waste of film i have ever seen. it's not really comedy, and not really all that romantic. A very canned, easy-to-see coming romanced. if you want to see some good dominique, watch "girl." Wanna see a good romance, watch "funny face." Wanna see a good comedy, watch "ground hog day." wanna see all 3? don't go w/ this movie. ps- i know i can't spell, don't bother telling me, it won't change a damn thing!

Seems cheaply produced, tinny sound. Lame production number early in the movie and the movie does not get better. Surprisingly bad with such an interesting cast. Don't waste your time. I was not able to watch the whole movie. It was that bad.

I bought this movie because I am smitten by Paulina Porizkova who plays the shoe editor for "Skirt" magazine. She was the Estee Lauder model for about 7 years. Gwyneth Paltrow has a cameo role as well. I am also smitten by her. I have been reading fashion magazines for years and, for a while was a photographer, and know about models. In fact, I knew a model like Resin.

The movie has this very enjoyable musical production number just after the start. It is reminiscent of the old MGM musicals. Then we are introduced to the staff of "Skirt" by Jocelyn, the intern. She is played very well by Dominique Swain. All the staff of "Skirt" are played 'over the top' like some members of the rag trade. The movie is enhanced by the gays.

Peggy Lipton who plays the editor in chief was a pleasant surprise to me. I last saw her as Julie, the gorgeous blond dolly cop in "The Mod Squad" TV series. Now she has black hair and is a very attractive sophisticated lady. Joan Rivers is, as usual excellent in her role.There are the cameos of the fashion famous especially Andre Leon Talley (actually Editor at Large of Vogue). The thing that really adds to this movie is the story about the spy. I did not suspect who the spy turned out to be. The movie is well scripted - a plus these days when there are movies being made with excellent special effects but bad scripts. The editing is tight which makes the film move fast with no dead spots.

A credit to Michael Lange for his first feature movie. He has being doing a lot of TV including the "X-Files" and should get a lot more feature work.

This is a very rapidly paced movie. The subtitles go by so fast they are only just readable. It is a name dropping spoof full of cameos that completely pass a novice like me. You have to have background to get this movie.

For me, the exaggeration is obvious. I just need so much more background to get this movie. I'd say the favorable reviews indicate what the target audience is.

Unfortunately, although I catch the spirit of the thing, and regret my lack of awareness, I could not persist all the way through this movie. I just felt left out, looking at what is probably a great movie for the in crowd.
