Pretty Things (2005)
A Short History of Burlesque
I really enjoyed this documentary. Maybe Ms. Goldwyn was a bit stiff in her dance, but she was great at bringing out the best in all the burlesque queens she interviewed, and I think she enjoyed herself doing it. The costumes were magnificent, no matter how dated they were, I just wish Ms. Goldwyn wouldn't have tried everything on over her clothes. Modesty is fine, but she could have found another way of modeling all the glitz. It was interesting to observe the attitudes that all the "queens" had, and how they displayed their affections (or lack thereof) for each other. They were truly fun to watch and I totally enjoyed the "old broads"!! I would watch it again, and hope to see another film produced by Liz Goldwyn. Hats (or clothes) off to her!!!
