: Drop Dead Gorgeous

Author: Lona Williams

Director: Michael Patrick Jann

In what country do they show these movies? This was a cool movie, but I don’t remember ever seeing it on theatre marquees. I liked this a lot. It was a satire of beauty pageants, set in a tiny town in Minnesota (with everyone speaking with Fargo accents). It was clever, though not brilliant, with good performances. Like all satires, uneven, but occasionally hilarious. All-in-all a pleasant little comedy (dark in places, but I love black comedy).
