Movie Reviews of Judith Krantz's I'll Take Manhattan

Movie Review: 80s heaven.
Summary: 5 Stars

Truly one of the great mini-series of the eighties. Like the previous reviewer, I first saw it here in New Zealand on original screening. The mini-series was indeed a capital E event in those days. Back in the summer of '96 a friend and I rented it on VHS as part of our mini-series revival season. Since then we've had semi-annual viewing marathons. It's a gift that keeps on giving, with each viewing revealing something (or someone) different.

The delight the year we first recognised Sex and the City's 'Mr Big' in a small role (I like to think Mr Big really was a sleezy movie producer in the eighties). The joy when Jane Kaczmarek made it big in 'Malcolm in the Middle'. Julianne Moore before she made it big, Tim Daly back when he was Timothy, and that woman who used to play the nanny who was a funsy witch. All this and of course starring the king of the eighties mini-series, the incomparable Barry Bostwick.

And let us not forget the classic lines ("You mean Justin, is a, homosexual"), the sometimes terrifying hair (yes, you, Nanette, sister of poor homely Candace), the unconvincing makeup and hair department, and the even more unconvincing cameo from The Donald.

I love you I'll Take Manhatten.

Summary of Judith Krantz's I'll Take Manhattan

I'll Take Manhattan takes you into the high-stakes world of magazine publishing, and weaves a dazzling tale of love and betrayal. Meet Krantz's most joyous character-the sensational Maxi Amberville (Valerie Bertinelli), an uninhibited woman who unexpectedly discovers that she must abandon her life of pleasure to save her family. When Maxi learns her uncle is plotting to sell her father's magazine empire and destroy his memory, she turns her lust for living into a passionate quest for revenge.

Here is a dramatic story of family, ambition, revenge, and an unforgettable woman who changes from a playgirl to a dynamic and caring heroine.
