Razzle-dazzle gimmickry and photographic techniques dwarf the trivial story. Full Review |

 |
A hybrid musical romantic fantasy, lavishing giddy heights of visual imagination and technical brilliance onto a wafer-thin story of true love turned sour, then sweet. Full Review |

1.5/5 |
It's even worse now, when its perms and polyester mark it as dated as its sexual politics. Full Review |

D+ |
A 1982 curio about feeling, not the weighty machinations of plot... but one that offers only moments of studied amusement, not rapt absorption. Full Review |

If any film from the 1980s needs to be re-examined, it's Francis Ford Coppola's One from the Heart. Full Review |
