Jonathan Switcher (Andrew McCarthy) is an artist who is struggling to hold down a job; but when a mannequin that he created comes to life he quickly becomes the most wanted window dresser in the city.
Kim Cattrall is the simply stunning fibreglass femme fatale he created, and Jonathan is soon smitten with her magical, statuesque beauty; but the competition want him out of the business, for good.
This movie is exquisitely charming throughout, and it's sprinkled with plenty of comedy moments and characters. It's sweet and cute, but it's stop short of being sickly; making it a lot of fun to watch.
6/10
