फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
The ending is perfect as it plays far more realistically than the comeuppance of Darling where the heroine has achieved the status of a princess but yet she is deathly bored. The heroine of STARDOM doesn't even have that ability to self reflect. While STARDOM plays less bitterly than DARLING because it is less a poison portrait of a manipulating bitch than social criticism, a presentation of an idiotic society which finds and discards superficial heroes, the more blank the better, as a matter of course. If the heroine of STARDOM actually had an intellect, or a central nervous system, she might be regarded as a victim but she seems to have less self awareness than the replicantes of BLADE RUNNER. The ending is chilling for the more sentient audience members, others will be puzzled by what the big deal is at an apparent happy ending.
These are the people who are indirectly being criticized in STARDOM.
Ahhhh....but wait! Here's Stardom. And Gosh, it stars just about every montreal actor there is! And Gee! It's directed by Denys Arcand-why he's just fantastic. Perhaps I should see it.
So I did. About a week ago. And I'm still scratching my head. What the heck is this movie? I can't figure it out for the life of me. Jessica Pare is pretty good as Tina. She embodies the role, and does it gracefully. Dan Ackroyd and Frank Langella are also pretty good too. I've never seen Ackroyd like this before, he's very impressive. The overall film is not easy to classify or understand. I guess it's a satire of the media and I guess it's all about fame and celebrities, but gosh darn...I just don't know...
Listen: Go check it out. It's at least cool to see Montreal double for practically every other city in the world.
Seen as a film about the superficiality of the modeling industry and the trivia of all media commentary, it is actually a film about the absence of a fully determining, existential self. On reflection--something most viewers have not had the patience to do--STARDOM is about the loss of moral centre in a world devoted to celebrity celebration and instant gratification. Have a look at it. Think about it. There is more to STARDOM than meets the eye!

Montreal Talk-Show Host: [leaving his guest stranded to fend for himself as he comes down to interview girlfriend] Hello?
[in French, causing a deer-in-the-headlights startled look from her]
Montreal Talk-Show Host: What? Pussycat got your tongue?
Tina Menzhal: [uncomfortably] I'm sorry, I don't speak French.

[leads panicking girl to the stage, clowning along the way]
Montreal Talk-Show Host: Why don't you have a seat? Merci.
[to his abandoned guest, in French:]
Montreal Talk-Show Host: Okay, Philippe, that monologue must have exhausted you. Go sit in my chair, it's much more comfortable.
[in effect, shooing him out of the way, with the pretty girl all to himself]
Montreal Talk-Show Host: Go. Thanks.
[to her:]
Montreal Talk-Show Host: So, are you ashamed of this man? Is there a dark secret you wish to share with us?
Tina Menzhal: Well, I'm not supposed to be seen with him.
Montreal Talk-Show Host: Why? Because he is too old for you?
Philippe Gascon: [in French:] Thanks a lot!
Montreal Talk-Show Host: [in French:] Don't mention it!

Tina Menzhal: Yeah, right. Now the whole world knows.
[gesturing at Philippe]

Montreal Talk-Show Host: Paris? Paris, France? My God. But, you don't speak French.
Tina Menzhal: I know a few words.
Montreal Talk-Show Host: Say one.
Tina Menzhal: [delightfully naïve] I can't. They're all dirty words, I think.
Montreal Talk-Show Host: [in French, to Philippe:] You taught her smut?
Philippe Gascon: [in French, laughing:] You gotta start somewhere.
Montreal Talk-Show Host: [in French:] You pervert.
Tina Menzhal: I know this one... Vicieuse. He likes it when I am vicieuse, or...
[tries in French:]
Tina Menzhal: And also, 'slut.'
Montreal Talk-Show Host: [in French, theatrical, to audience, who is lapping it up:] Is it me, or is it really getting hot in here? I'm gonna pass out. I need some water. Be right with you.

[audience laughter grows]
Montreal Talk-Show Host: Please speak French to me!
