Movie Reviews of Ready to Wear

Movie Review: altman at his most loveable
Summary: 5 Stars

there's very little NOT to like about this classic altman-poke at paris fashionistas. i haven't seen this movie in years but i remember when it came out i had already developed a liking for altman's work and this really sealed the deal.
it is hip fast, cheeky, sly, and yet, never mean!!.....there's a whole roster of wonks and you end up loving them all for all their frailty, pompous-egotism, delusion, and angst-driven antics. it is the fabric within the fabric that makes us laugh>
and makes me want to see it again almost 15 years later.

Summary of Ready to Wear

A glittering Hollywood all-star cast shines in Robert Altman's deliciously sexy comedy hit READY TO WEAR! At the world's hottest fashion show, there's been a murder. Now, everybody's a suspect -- including two guests who end up sharing much more than a hotel room! Add to the fun a hilariously inept TV reporter on the trail of her most shocking interview yet! They're all caught up in the year's biggest see-and-be-seen events -- where steamy scandals and spectacular supermodels turn up the heat in a riotous show of high-fashion hilarity.

Robert Altman's much-anticipated broadside at the world of fashion is a disappointment. The film's crazy-quilt Nashville-like narrative structure and ensemble casting (Julia Roberts, Tim Robbins, Lauren Bacall, Marcello Mastroianni, Sophia Loren) are a thing to behold, but the story's many interlocking pieces lack overall depth and resonating emotion. There is a grand, satiric statement about fashion and society at the end of the film, and there are hints of an aging, nostalgic filmmaker's skepticism about our postmodern world of short-lived attachments and meanings. But watching this film is a long, long uphill climb, with a lot of thin air to endure before arriving at a destination. --Tom Keogh
