Girl Play

Description

When Gabriel (Dom Deluise) casts "real" lesbians in a play about two female actors falling in love, he unintentionally sparks a raging passion between the women. As rehearsals progress, the action behind the scenes takes off in ways both comic and sexy. Also stars Mink Stole as a hilariously distraught mother.

sizzelicious.......2007-09-09

I found that they excelled in making this film. the way that it was a play within a play was very well thought out, and the fact that it was a true story to boot made it one of the best lesbian films that I have seen in a long time!

EXCELLENT in every category of filmmaking........2007-09-03

Girl Play is about love, made with love, and exudes love. I would recommend this film to anybody and everybody; but especially to women, gay or straight. It is fresh, funny, inspiring, heartwarming, and intellectual. I have watched it about 8 times on my way to watching it who knows how many more. Every time I watch it, I see nuances that I hadn't seen before. The laughs always come, and also the tears. I am very hopeful that there will be other films starring Lacie and Robin to follow this one.

Real People.......2007-09-02

I liked this movie. I could identify with their yearning for something more in a relationship. And Dom Delouise was great as a producer. I would recommend this film for folks who like characters and not stunts.

REVIEWING A LESBIAN MOVIE IN ENGLISH DONE WELL.......2007-05-12

EXCELLENT MOVIE ABOUT THE LAYERS AND LEVELS OF FEMALE WITH FEMALE COMPANIONSHIP. A PLEASUER TO WATCH AND NOT TO EXCESSIVE ABOUT SEX PARTS

Boring, Boring, Boring.......2007-04-13

I was never so bored with a movie. I could not wait until it was over. Thank God, I didn't buy it before I watched it.

Judy Garland is at the peak of her charm and appeal as the title character of Presenting Lily Mars. The 19-year-old aspiring actress has great hopes for the future but can't seem to catch a break even when a Broadway producer (Van Heflin) returns to her small Indiana town for a family visit. Undeterred, she follows him to New York and earns a small part and a romance is sparked, but when the leading role unexpectedly opens up, will the talented youngster be ready? Presenting Lily Mars was released in 1943, the same year Garland would do her last collaboration with Mickey Rooney (Girl Crazy) and between her first significant adult roles, For Me and My Gal (1942) and Meet Me in St. Louis (1944). What the movie doesn't have is a lot of great music. Many of the songs are performed by other people, and while the few numbers Garland sings are gold, the songs themselves can't match the Gershwin and Arlen standards in many of her other films. The most notable is Brown & Freed's "Broadway Rhythm," which everyone should recognize from Singin' in the Rain--it's a rousing closer by Garland backed by Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra. With Marta Eggerth as Garland's operatic rival, and future jazz singer Annie Ross as Garland's singing and piano-playing younger sister. --David Horiuchi

Description

Presenting Judy Garland! Whether swinging a hot number with Bob Crosby's orchestra or emoting a hilariously hammy version of Lady Macbeth's sleepwalking scene, Judy is a delight as a stage-struck Hoosier in this charming film based on Booth Tarkington's novel. Lily just knows she has the talent to light up the Great White Way, so when a big Broadway producer (Van Heflin) visits her hometown, she expends all the candlepower of her charisma to impress him. He's not impressed. He heads back to New York and Lily follows, thumbing her way east on what she's sure is a one-way trip to instant stardom. At a mere 20 years old, Judy had already reached stardom. Presenting Lily Mars proves why, showcasing her once-in-a-generation voice, gift for comedy and enduring movie magnetism. Break a leg, Lily!

JUDY AT HER MOST BEAUTIFUL.......2007-07-15

This is probably considered one of Judy's "smaller" films, as opposed to Meet Me In St. Louis or The Harvey Girls. But it is so charming and gives you a feeling of wanting to take Judy in yours arms and just hugging her to pieces. At this time in her life, Judy blossomed into beautiful womanhood while still keeping her girl next door appeal. And who wouldn't want Lily Mars living next door to them?! She glows. It's a sparkling performance, played with such a natural ease. The score may not be that memorable, but there are standouts,i.e., When I Look At You, and Tom The Piper's Son. And who could not get misty eyed over Every Little Movement sung by Judy and the wonderful character actress Connie Gilchrist? This is a must for Judy fans. Is it corny? Yeah. Is it fun? Sure. Is it Judy at her young, glamourous, adorable best? ABSOLUTELY!!!!

Where There's Music.......2007-07-07

This is a chick-flick, gals. Oh sure, it was like the MTV of 1943, but these days it has a bit of a feel like "Little Women". You could have a pajama party for your 13-year olds; get the film and the popcorn. This is the first film where MGM did a major glam-job on Judy, and she's looking her prettiest in every way. She's blonde, and very petite, almost frail-looking; the costumers fit her into the cutest, smartest little lady's suits and made her an ingenue. The story line is a little exasperating (which also exasperated Judy). Girl has talent, girl wants to be noticed and loved; girl meets man; girl flirts and becomes the center of attention of an entire dancing-choir; girl has a dramatic conflict with man who marries her and saves her from her family and everything else. (yea...) Film sets are interesting; Judy is full of life and the songs remind you of war-time and, hey what those boys out there are fighting for.

A Dilly of a Movie..........2007-07-04

My Favorite Judy Garland Movie. She is Beautiful and what a voice. My best friends and I get together for his birthday every year and watch this movie while eating his version of Lilys star cake. A must see for all Garland fans.

One of my favorites.......2007-04-04

This is a movie that I had been looking for to come out on DVD. My old VHS was worn out from so many viewings, so I was thrilled to receive this DVD!

This one is a must for any Garland fan.

good little known judy movie .......2007-03-13

I found this movie a long time ago on tape and later on tv. i was glad it came out on dvd. It is a little known Judy movie, but she looks wonderful in it. It is one her funniest movies, she is wonderful of a midwestern girl wanting to be an actress, but has to go where it can happen, New York to live in the "incubator" with her boughten hats. it is a charming film that all Judy Garland fans must see. The ending alone is worth it when she dances beautifully. It was too bad that this and the Clock didn't have a commentary from John Fricke, who knows everything about Judy. It would have a nice bonus.

Don't forget to cast your vote! Five gorgeous Penthouse Pets compete for the coveted title of Penthouse Pet of the Year 2001. Who will follow in the footsteps of the lovely Juliet Cariaga? We'll let you be the judge as these beauties strut their stuff for our cameras. Samantha Stewart, Angelica Costello, Vicca, Miel Angel, and Zdenka show off their best assets and tell you all their fantasies and secrets. "Penthouse Pet of the Year Play-Off 2001," the world's most desirable women in a timelessly sensual setting.

Customer Reviews:

Almost there..........2007-09-06

First, no doubt about it: The women range from very pretty to stunning, & this is why it rates four stars. It's probably a toss-up as to who's more mesmerizingly beautiful, Samantha or Zdenka; but the latter gives an air of "I'd rather be _______ (doing almost anything else)."

On one issue, I'm clearly in the minority, not only here I'll wager, but in the viewing public at large. It's this: I enjoy a woman showing her charms 10 times more if she makes eye contact with the viewer/camera. It adds to the illusion that she is stripping/dancing "just for us," & creates much more of a connection; it's just plain sexier.

There are a significant number of segments on this DVD during which there is NO eye contact with the viewer--almost as if the women had been given instructions to this effect.

Only one woman, & then during only one of her two segments, actually connects with the viewer--not enough for me.

A Visual Stunner.......2002-12-11

Beautiful bodies, hair, makup, lengerie.. a very professional production with great scenery, lighting, costumes.. sensual with the women moving slowly and caressing their bodies, using oils, water, milk, and a feather.. You get the feeling the girls are really enjoying the teasing. They talk about their fantasies. BR>Overall, very good softcore teasing, a delight to the eyes.

gorgeous, classy, but tame.......2001-12-23

Hey the women are gorgeous, the photography classy, and there's the obligatory g on g stuff. That said, this was soft core, mildly erotic, with no close-ups or anything that could be considered "nasty" or even "cool." As in "ohhhh, that's nasty...", or, "Wow. Cooool." You see more action in a "Girls gone wild" DVD. If you want soft, classy, and beautiful, get the disk. If you want more, well this makes good eye candy, but not much else.

Chock-full of sizzling skits........2001-05-06

This disc is the perfect Pet sampler. Blonde, red-head, sandy brown, and dark-haired. Each model with a different look and figure. A healthy helping of racy make this video a worthy addition to the collection. Also recommend, Penthouse's Dear Diary.

A must have!.......2001-01-27

Stars: Samantha Stewart, Vicca, Angelica Costello, Zdenka, Miel Angel Director: Nicholas Guccione Total length 71 minutes. 56 Minutes for feature, about 15 minutes for the bonus footage. Main feature is divided into 11 parts of approximately 5 minutes each. 10 parts features 1 actress and 1 part features 2 actresses. There are no males present in this feature. Each actress is featured in two of the single girl parts. Vicca and Samantha are featured in the one 5 minute two girl segment in this feature. The extra footage is of lower quality than the rest of this feature, which is probably why it was not a part of the main feature in the first place. Expect lots of nudity with emphasis on eroticism, numerous scenes with legs spread, and a few glimpes of the women spreading themselves. Actually, with Angelica, it is more than a glimpse. Whoever said real beauty is on the inside was right. "Harlots of Hell" and "Dear Diary" show similar amounts skin in approximately the same amounts, and I recommend both of these titles as well. Both of these titles also have a higher proportion of 2-4 girl scenes.

This isnt the worst Playoff Video I have seen. However, its not thebest either. . . this in no way as good as Playoff 1999, with SamanthaMichaels. Simply put, the two best videos ever made from Penthouse isPlayoff 99' , and Pet of the Year and Friends with Paige Summers. Yummy, those will rock your world.

Bad........2000-01-03

I have seen all POY Playoffs available. And I have to say that this is the worst I have seen so far. Uninspired.Bad sound. And the girls are not what you would expect.

I rated this DVD a 2 stars because the video quality is too bad. The sound quality is not good either. The only good thing about it is Penthouse Pets. They should have done a better job with video and sound quality. Not recommend it

Description

A cult favorite from director Ken Russell. In a candle-lit Victorian brothel, playwright Oscar Wilde sips champage as pretty prositutes enact his latest play, "Salome," about the temptress responsible for the death of John the Baptist. As Salome performs her Dance of the Seven Veils, life begins to imitate art and the story becomes a mirror of the life of its author. Features: Audio commentary with director Ken Russell, Theatrical Trailer, Scene Access

Customer Reviews:

The Original Camp Classic!.......2007-09-01

This is easily the best version of Oscar Wilde's play out there, if only because it's a comedy. All other versions of Salome act as though the overly loquacious protestations of love and ridiculous tragedy are meant to be taken seriously and not tongue-in-cheek. Wilde wrote the play not as the supposed love poem that some "scholars" suggest, but instead as a parody of the melodrama popular at the time. Salome was the first camp classic and now Ken Russel allows us to experience as it was meant to be seen.

Later Richard Strauss would turn Wilde's work into the odd sort of psychological drama of his opera. And if that's what you want to see buy a version of the opera, don't try to force the play to become it. Allow for the play to be what it is.

Please Re-Release!

A Word for Word Interpretation of Wilde's Salome.......2006-12-30

I bought this film (VHS) from my local video store years ago & still have it. I'm stunned that the DVD is in such a prohibative price range!!!!!!!!!!
This film is a word for word read of Wilde's play Salome, but what a "wild", filmatic modern interpretation. A very fun movie and campy isn't the only thing this movie is, its very irreverent in the best sense of the word, a most cheesy morsel of goods. I love the words in this play and frankly think the director was a genius with the physical counterpoint to the language of the play. I'm sure Wilde wrote the play
"straight". As a matter of fact he even acted in Salome & he played Salome, so maybe I'm wrong & he didn't write it "straight". The movie is faithful to the "fin de siecle" philosophy pervading Wilde's Salome & as such I believe the director of the movie did a bang up job. KYA

Oh please, someone re-release this film on DVD!.......2006-11-16

This film is an exquisite study in camp. Susan Sontag's NOTES ON CAMP should be amended to include this movie. I ADORE this movie. Glenda Jackson vamps it up as Herodias, and Stratford Johns is hilarious as Herod. It is fun, it is ribald, it is scandalous and witty, it is Ken Russell at his best (and that's saying quite a bit, because he can be a very uneven director-- you've got the man who on one hand created WOMEN IN LOVE, and then recently crapped out THE FALL OF THE LOUSE OF USHER). Well darlings, enjoy this film, watch it with a glass of champagne and a clove cigarette.

May it indeed be the last.......2005-12-01

It's interesting to see this movie getting so many good reviews, because among my friends, it's known as the film that's only bearable to watch on fast-forward.

This film is sensationalist, yet boring--it attempts to follow in the steps of Jarmann, but is not nearly so inventive.

The person playing Salome was horrible, reducing her wonderfully paradoxical character in Wilde's play to nothing more than a Lolita knock-off with an oral fixation, with only one tone of voice for all of her lines.

Most of the sequences actually relating to Oscar Wilde were historically wrong--which could be borne easily enough--but also unimaginatively vulgar, and demeaning--which cannot. I wouldn't be surprised if the take on Wilde and his circle portrayed here was based in large part on "Teleny"--an "erotic novel" (I use both terms loosely) that has popularly been attributed to him, but which was most likely a simple (and poor) imitation of his style.

This film might be interesting as a curiousity, but it does Wilde's beautiful play no justice.

Please re-release this movie on DVD!!!!.......2005-07-18
