Showgirls (1995)

£0.00


Country: US
Technical: col/scope 131m
Director: Paul Verhoeven
Cast: Elizabeth Berkley, Kyle MacLachlan, Gina Gershon, Glenn Plummer

Synopsis:

An ambitious dancer makes her way to Vegas to succeed in showbiz, and becomes an erotic performer. Undeterred, she means to rise to the top of the pile.

Review:

Gold Diggers meet All About Eve, you might say, giving its flush director opportunity to exercise his propensity for prurient spectacle. Plenty of flesh on display but someone forgot to order a story. Result: Eszterhas engineered the single most flagrant confidence trick in the history of screenwriting, spelling the beginning of the end for the brief era of highly paid writers.
