Featured review
Fun Fluff, Original Characters, Sharp Dialog
I just watched the new Lost in Space series on Netflix and was reminded how great Parker Posey can be. I decided to look for Party Girl and found it lurking on YouTube.
Hadn't seen it in many years, but it holds up. I have to say, when I first saw it many, many years ago, I thought there were parts of it that were weak. But none of that bothered me this time, because compared to a lot of stuff made today, this film is jam-packed with action, it's got interesting visuals, and original characters.
There aren't many actors who can toss off a line like "I'd like a powerful mind-altering substance please. Preferably one that will give my unborn children gills." But Posey does this was ease. In fact her performance looks effortless and I'm very sure it wasn't.
A bonus is the soundtrack. I bought it and blasted it in the car for years.
I can understand how some people wouldn't like this movie. Particularly if they've never lived in a big city or been into the club scene. It might all seem alien and artificial. Trust me, it's not. It's pretty true to life.
Give this movie a chance. Especially if you're young and feeling like an outsider. Or if you're gay. The last line in the movie sums it all up. 'Life is a garden, and we are all flowers."
