The worst film ever made? I did suffer through some of Heaven's Gate this weekend and that, at least, was watchable (principally during the many, extended scenes wherein Isabelle jiggled her pert breasts), occasionally. It was painful to watch ol' Kris work so hard to "act."
The L A, on the other hand, had nothing to recommend it. Angelica looked like a cadaver. She still tries to wear her hair pitch black and long and squeeze into tight dresses. The appearance is one of an unsuccessful attempt to control a large, thick tube of 5-weight oil with a snug girdle: the bulges and sags have no apparent relation to the human figure.
And what of my favorite comedian, fresh from his triumph in Lost in Translation? Egad. That can't be Bill up there, can it, breezing his way through his lines and scenes as if he were doing an extended Scotch commercial.
I don't want to waste to much of your time or mine in trashing this piece of flotsam: avoid it like a hot tub immediately after the 5-yr. olds have played in it.
