[QUOTE="James from London, post: 155215, member: 22"] Thanks for alerting me to this film's existence, Justine! I found it on YouTube and watched it today. [MEDIA=youtube]2NiLCD6EP6Y[/MEDIA] Faye Dunaway plays a model with a steadily worsening grip on reality. The whole thing's told from her point of view using a fractured kind of storytelling which feels very 1970 -- flashbacks, flashbacks within flashbacks, fantasy sequences within flashbacks, till you've lost track of where you started. Both the film and Dunaway look beautiful, but it still feels more raw and real than glossy and glamorous. It's more of a character study than an edge-of-your-seat drama. Dunaway's character is a nightmare, completely self-absorbed, and she's on screen throughout so it's a little relentless but quite fascinating at the same time. A very young Angelica Nero pops up briefly. It was the first movie directed by the photographer of the cover of Bob Dylan's [I]Blonde on Blonde[/I] album.
