NOT IN WIDESCREEN YET

Why is this great movie not in widescreen? Its the age of HD. Why are not all movies 16X9?

Sad Story

Hollywood in the late 70's and early 80's was apparently about the same as Hollywood today,drugs, sleaze- women making a living from their looks and bodies and men making a living from womens looks and bodies. When Vancouver car show promoter Paul Snider (Eric Roberts) "discovered" Dorothy...

It's all been said about movie and I agree, it's at least 4 Star.

Five Stars? Well the movie is, or at least a 4 as you can see from most of the reviews. But, what we should actually be reviewing here is the product. I wish Amazon would revamp their rating system though so as not to toss all reviews for all versions of a movie into one basket. Or better yet a...

STAR 80

The film is well produced, well directed and extremely well acted. I use the film in a college class on the "Theories of Intimate Violence." The final physically violent ending notwithstanding, all of the events leading up to the tragic finale represents an excellent example of a subtle form of...

TALL SCREEN!!!

Ditto, all the 5-star reviews. The film is fan-f**king-tastic!But the star-rating asks "How do you rate this ITEM?"This "item" violates director Fosse's original widescreen film by presenting it in "NORMAL" format... you know, chopped off at the sides to fit into those old, square-screen, heavy,...

Prepare to be transported to a life of glitter and brutality at the start of the 1980's

Director Bob Fosse made Star 80 in 1983, just over two years after the brutal murder of 1980 Playmate of the Year Dorothy Stratten at the hands of her husband/manager/wannabe-pimp Paul Sinder. The film is a gritty look at a beautiful tragedy. Modern viewers will be transported back two decades...

STAR 80

I REALLY ENJOY WATCHING THIS MOVIE OVER AND OVER.I BELIEVE IT TO BE A POIGNANTLY WRITTEN SEMI-BIOGRAPHY OF A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY WHO BLESSED THOSE SHE MET WITH HER GRACE AND CHARM. MARIEL HEMINGWAY SHINES BRIGHTLY WITH HER PORTRAYAL OF DOROTHY STRATTEN FROM A NAIVE TEENAGER TO A GORGEOUS YOUNG...

The Centerfold, the Pimp and the Pornographer

When I got married in Las Vegas in 1999, I chose the Silver Bell Wedding Chapel on the Strip because it offered a fun Elvis wedding. In the lobby were photos of famous people who'd also got married there (Rodney Dangerfield, sports figures) and next to the front door was a large photo of Dorothy...

An unnerving, haunting film.....Eric Roberts gives a devastating performance...

I went to see this film in the theatre literally a dozen times and over 20+ years I've watched it on VHS/DVD probably two dozen more times. With the exception of the films of James Dean and David Cronenberg's "Dead Ringers", I don't believe I've obsessed over any other films to the degree that I...
