for the final performance of the Razzle Dazzle. Beautiful That WayWritten by Miley Cyrus, Lykke Li and Andrew WyattPlayed by Miley Cyrus When I heard about this movie, I immediately thought of this year’s Substance. Both Pamela Anderson and Demi Moore are actresses who were huge stars in their youth and whose careers were “tightly tied to their looks” and stopped getting roles in prestigious Hollywood productions after a certain age, but this year they got roles that put them back on everyone’s lips.
Pamela, on the other hand
Demi, however, performed phenomenally in a highly original and bold body horror and her role will be remembered as one of the best comebacks in the history of cinema. well, she performs well in this film and proves she can be a good dramatic actress, but she is held back by the film itself, which is too formulaic, doesn’t take any risks and doesn’t delve into the psychology of the main character, let alone that of the completely unwritten supporting characters. There are a few interesting plot seeds, including: clashes between the characters over which of the performances they undertake in various clubs are art and which are pornography, but these interesting moments are quickly cut off in favor of sentimental and meaningless scenes, like Pamela dancing on the street in Las Vegas.
I didn’t like Jamie Lee Curtis in this, who acts like she’s in a completely different film than the others
The plot is fairly predictable – we know how the conflicts between the characters will be resolved and that some elements introduced at the beginning will return at the end. I also don’t understand why the shots at the beginning of the film are sometimes so strangely out of focus?? I think this should be part of the artistic vision, but it is done so clumsily and inconsistently that it looks more like an accident.
You’ll probably watch it and then forget it right away
But at least The Last Showgirl is only 1 hour and 25 minutes long, so it’s not a tedious experience.
