Viewing Notes

This was great to see on the big screen! I didn’t realize it wasn’t available on home video. Beautiful print from from 1984 with super vivid colors (this film has a bright palette of tones indicated various moods during Ginger Rogers psychoanalysis). Such a weird movie too as she portrays a bigshot Editor in Chief of a Allure Magazine but can’t get her life right and may have daddy issues. Really cool to see this and the crazy “dream” sets.
