Review by stephen-638

this movie speaks oodles about the era. before aids took it's grip and shoulder pads and heavy blush rein supreme. this is just plain fun and a fantastic look at the glamor and fluff that was the early 80's. it follows the unrealistic world of the rise and rise a model and the "whos" she comes into contact with along the way and the painful changes she must endure to reach the pinnacle. crammed with many, still famous fashion people a-la Steven Meisel et Patrick Demarchelier. well worth a look to see the "it" people of the day in an unscripted journey into the crazy world of fashion, high heels and belted t-shirts. if you want to forget todays woes this movie is a+. and if you were there the first time around (and survived) you will get a kick out of it too.
