Review of Prêt-à-Porter (1994) by Daria S — 07 Nov 2010
Not quite as bad as its reputation. Not all that great, either. Very middle of the work stuff from Altman - essentially a fashion version of [i]Nashville[/i]. There are a few moments and subplots that work, and a lot that don't.
Surprisingly, I thought the only real standout was Kim Basinger, whose turn as an airheaded TV journalist is exceedingly funny. Ultimately though, too many of Altman's points and insinuations are just bloody obvious (individuals in the fashion industry are vapid and self-obsessed? Do go on.
).
