Description:
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

Nashville and this movie (Pret a Porter, in itself something of a pun) are my two favorite Altman movies. Both feature a large cast of characters, no plot worth mentioning, curious "now you see me, now you don't" characters (here the amazing character played by Marcello Mastroianni), dazzling costumes (a bit higher-class in this movie than in the home of the Grand Ole Opry, obviously ;-), constant cuts back and forth between various (mostly unconnected) threads, all at an easy pace and with tongue ...

WORST 133 MINUTES I'VE SPENT LATELY. IT HAD SUBTITLES, THAT DIDN'T STAY UP LONG ENOUGH, AND JUST A STUPIT MOVIE OVERALL. COMPANY DELIVERED DVD IN RECORD TIME. THAT'S THE ONLY GOOD THING I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS PRODUCT.

Ok, Why would anyone even watch a movie about a murder taking place in a FASHION SHOW IN PARIS if they consider glamour and beauty not to be a point in and of itself.
Aside from visual feasts the movie depicts this lifestyle in a honest way, kinda like how Office Space depicts the office life. One scene is when these two ladies who are staying next to each other talk to each other politely as they walk each other to their hotel rooms. When they arrive at their doors they bid their farewells ... Read More

Watching this movie is an enjoyable and non-stop "hoot" (if that term is still used). It seems that everyone in Hollywood wanted a cameo appearance in this Robert Altman film, perhaps because it was filmed in Paris. It is true that a critic may find the plot senseless and incomplete, but I doubt very much if the filmakers intended to present a complete and thorough story. The intent was clearly a parady spoof of the Paris fashion industry and all of its multi-faced participants. In this regard READY TO ... Read More

Why all the hate for FEADY TO WEAR? Like many of you, I was underwhelmed when it first came out but now thanks to constant showings on the Sundance Channel and all those channels in that narrow band of indie cable, it has been growing on me and now I can't stop watching it. Barbara Shulgasser's writing is wonderful, and if it has been chopped up like cole slaw by Altman's fitful direction, and by the generally improvisatory style embodied by Kim Basinger's steamrolling fashion reporter, it is still Altman ...

Cunard Line has announced that its new
85,000-ton cruise ship, which is scheduled to enter service in 2008, will be
named Queen Victoria. Based in Southampton, England, the Cunard Queen Victoria will be
the second largest Cunard Queen ever built. Together with the current flagship,
Queen Elizabeth 2, and Queen Mary 2, the biggest passenger liner ever, the
Cunard fleet will include three Queens for the first time – truly the most
famous ocean liners in the world.

Cruise
Queen Victoria will enter service in the company’s 165th anniversary and will
operate cruises to and from Southampton to the Mediterranean, the Canaries,
Northern Europe, the Caribbean, and South America. The 1,968-passenger vessel
will feature a covered wraparound promenade deck, a forward-facing observation
lounge, a large Lido pool with a retractable magrodome, and 10 of the12
passenger decks will be served by exterior glass-walled lifts. Like QE2 and QM2,
the liner will have a Queens Grill, offering single-seating gourmet dining.
There will also be a unique Colonial Restaurant on Deck 11 with spectacular
panoramic views.
Queen Victoria cruises will offer a wide range of
accommodations, large standard outside cabins (170 square feet) and a high
percentage of balcony cabins (67%), thereby bringing new levels of luxury and
choice to passengers preferring to depart from a European port. Cruise
Queen Victoria!
Cheapest Domain Name
The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British
tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red
ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and
she will have a British Captain and Officers.
In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design
teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.
Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near
Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically
advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000
vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally
ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company
Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid
and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery in 2006.
Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria. The
lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.
No cruise schedules have yet been
announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to
her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008. |
