The dark side of the 50's and Alt J
8 August 2023
Watching this over 30 years after the release of this film, it's still a fantastic portrayal of difficult topics. What still stands out is Jennifer Jason Leigh's performance. Before this she was nearly always sweet, shy characters in films. The jump from that to Tralala really shows her talent and commitment to the characters she plays.

Alexis Arquette was fantastic and so was Stephen Lang. Rikki Lake was also in it and so was Jerry Orbach plus watch for a young Sam Rockwell!

One thing for sure, I'll never hear Fitzpleasure by Alt J the same way ever again after watching it this time.

If you are looking for a dark, intense movie, this might be good. If you're looking for a happy ending, you'll need to find something else.
