| Delightful Australian musical. To this day I am appalled that it doesn't get half as much hype as Taxi Driver. This movie makes me want to try red hair-- it seems to add something extra to every outfit and looks absolutely fantastic with red lipstick! Also I need to acquire a bone piece and try that Bam-Bam esque hair trick. |
 |
| Wish I'd gotten a better shot of Jackie's minty waitressing uniform. (Self Note: Need to make a diner-girl uniform appreciation post.) Settled for this shot of her and class-cutting cousin Angus instead: The heartthrob of my 12 year old self! |
 |
| The room shared by the two cousins is the height of wondrous. |
 |
Boys Don't Cry (1999)
 |
| Just a few shots of Chloe Sevigny being enchanting. |
Some Girl (1998)
 |
| I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I found it under Juliette Lewis on netflix, and though the description made it sound fluffy and banal, I ended up enjoying a stir fry of unsweetened relationship truisms and emotionally vulnerable characters. |
 |
Party Monster (2003)
 |
| Movie surrounding Micheal Alig's involvement in the New York party scene and the club kids of the late 1980's and early 1990's. |
 |
| Seth Green and Macaulay Culkin perfectly illustrate the relationship between Micheal Alig and James St. James. Though the movie perfectly captured the movement's glittery ecstacy-hooked essence, half the fun was watching these two! |
 |
| The actors really seemed to have so much fun with their roles. The clothing and makeup choices were, to put it mildly, outrageously brilliant. |
 |
| The stunning Amanda Lepore makes an appearance! |
 |
More of darling Chloe <3 |
 |
| It's Ricky with wings! |
 |
| While I found some parts difficult to sit through (needles make me squirm), I would definitely consider this a worthwhile watch. Before seeing Party Monster I knew little about the movement, but it drove me to do some research on the Club Kids and I spent a good half hour watching Micheal Alig interviews. I hope there is something for everyone here! Next post is scary movies methinks. Comment a scary movie and I will either watch or review it! |
