"It's become this campy cult classic like `Rocky Horror Picture Show Verhoeven was castigated for purveying soulless sleaze Instead, the movie was laughed out of theaters after grossing only $20 million, half what it cost to make Berkley took the worst of it for her garish masquerade as a stripper turned Vegas showgirl, but the movie also was a career low for co-stars Kyle MacLachlan and Gina Gershon "I don't expect to be working for Mr " "We've targeted the DVD release to adults who have embraced the campy, fun and even outrageous aspects of the film and provided extras that deliver on that notion," Blake Thomas, MGM executive vice president for worldwide marketing, said in a statement I "And everyone who had been so mean and dismissive just had to eat crow "They're finally allowed to admit what they have on their hands and run with it as fast and hard as they can," said David Schmader, a writer and monologuist in Seattle who provides the "Showgirls" DVD commentary " Lin Tucci, who played stripper Henrietta "Mama" Bazoom, said she occasionally runs into fans who watch the movie for laughs "Yes, Elizabeth went over the top in certain sections The elaborate package includes shot glasses and playing cards for "Showgirls" drinking games; glossy pictures of star Elizabeth Berkley; plus pasties, a blindfold and a poster of Berkley for a "pin-the-pasties-on- the-showgirl" game ' Why it became this, how it became this, it's a mystery " Edition" DVD set on Tuesday, playing up the film's campy atrociousness " The stigma of "Showgirls" has hindered her career, but Berkley managed to keep working with supporting roles in such movies as "The First Wives Club," Woody Allen's "The Curse of the Jade Scorpion" and the independent film "Roger Dodger For critics, "Showgirls" was like shooting fish in a barrel with a Gatling gun Eszterhas barely worked in Hollywood again after writing the outlandish dialogue of "Showgirls," which included a bizarre exchange where Berkley and Gershon's characters discuss eating dog food Bristow said he sympathized with Berkley, for whom "Showgirls" could have been a big-screen breakthrough after her role in the teen TV series "Saved By the Bell But who was supposed to rein her in, and didn't? And who let her take it in the face when the movie came out?" Bristow said I don't know "It seems like this great lost Pinter scene where subtext is everything, until you realize that there absolutely is no subtext The actors declined interviews for this story It was fun,'" Tucci said Since it imploded critically and commercially in 1995, "Showgirls" has gained such a fringe following of movie masochists that distributor MGM is releasing a "V P "That one is so surreal you just can't believe you're watching it," said Schmader, who estimates he has seen "Showgirls" 100 times " Patrick Bristow, who played the choreographer, said he could see during filming that dialogue and character were taking a back seat to the filmmakers' "NC-17-breaking goal " Berkley was a young actress following her director's lead, he said Directed by Paul Verhoeven and written by Joe Eszterhas, the team behind "Basic Instinct," "Showgirls" was meant to kick open the door for mainstream acceptance of adult-only, NC-17-rated movies " Berkley recently made her Broadway debut in "Sly Fox Verhoeven again, obviously " Schmader did not see the movie until a couple of years after its release, then became obsessed with its awfulness and began inviting friends over for "Showgirls" video parties 'Showgirls' Bares All in Self-Mocking DVD Jul 26, 8:41 PM EST It was "42nd Street" with pasties, "All About Eve" with a G-string He has done live commentary for the movie at screenings in Seattle and at film festivals, pointing out how the filmmakers unintentionally made an "amazing comedy They're just talking about eating dog food Only those movies were cinema classics, while "Showgirls" was so bad that adjectives such as awful, wretched and appalling somehow seemed too kind But if a film festers in video stores long enough, its audience eventually will sniff it out " Three or four minutes into the "Showgirls" premiere, Bristow and his partner, who sat holding hands, were almost breaking each other's fingers as they agonized over how bad the movie was, he said " "It would be a true Hollywood story for her if in five years, 10 years, 20 years, she turns in an Oscar-winning performance," Bristow said "I do still get, `Oh, we rented the movie, we had a party Still skittish over "Showgirls," MGM executives declined interviews for this story Among DVD extras are a tutorial on how to give a lap dance and audio commentary titled "The Greatest Movie Ever Made But the studio clearly has recovered from the drubbing well enough to realize it can recoup some of its bad investment by mocking the movie On Broadway, Comden and Green (the billing was always alphabetical) worked most successfully with composers Leonard Bernstein, Jule Styne and Cy Coleman Broadway Lyricist Green Dies at 87 Oct 24, 12:40 PM EST NEW YORK (AP) â€â€? Adolph Green, whose six-decade collaboration with Betty Comden helped create such joyous stage celebrations of New York as "On the Town" and "Wonderful Town" as well as the classic movie musical "Singin' in the Rain," has died A 1985 stage adaptation was not as successful, running less than a year The two did an expert job tailoring the film "All About Eve" to the talents of Bacall The story of three sailors on a 24-hour leave in wartime New York was tailor-made for the time The story of the silent movie industry's transition to talkies starred Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds and Donald O'Connor In 1953, they had another film hit with "The Band Wagon," starring Fred Astaire and Cyd Charisse Green died at his Manhattan home Wednesday night, his son, Adam, said Thursday The best Comden and Green lyrics were brash and buoyant, full of quick wit, best exemplified by "New York, New York," an exuberant and forthright hymn to their favorite city It wasn't the only time they combined performing and writing, most notably in their two-person show "A Party with Betty Comden and Adolph Green," which was first done on Broadway in 1958 and periodically revived over the years The duo wrote lyrics and often the books for more than a dozen shows, many of them built around such stars as Rosalind Russell, Judy Holliday, Phil Silvers, Carol Burnett and Lauren Bacall And with Coleman, they wrote "On the Twentieth Century" (1978), which starred John Cullum, Madeline Kahn and Imogene Coca It was "On the Town," a musical comedy expansion of Jerome Robbins' ballet "Fancy Free," that introduced Comden and Green to Broadway in 1944 A succession of collaborations with Styne followed including the 1954 Mary Martin "Peter Pan," in which they were brought in to augment an already existing score; "Bells Are Ringing" (1956), written specifically for Holliday; and "Do Re Mi" (1960), a raucous look at the jukebox industry that featured Silvers and comedian Nancy Walker One of their biggest Broadway successes was "Applause" (1970), a show for which they wrote the book but not the lyrics Yet even the songwriters' biggest pop hits â€â€? "The Party's Over," "Just in Time" and "Make Someone Happy" â€â€? were simple, direct and heartfelt They won five Tony Awards, with three of their shows â€â€? "Wonderful Town," "Hallelujah, Baby!" and "Applause" â€â€? winning the top prize for best musical " Russell scored a personal triumph as plain-Jane magazine writer Ruth McKenny The music was by Bernstein, an old friend of Green's On film, their most celebrated work was the screenplay for "Singin' in the Rain" (1952), considered by many to be the finest movie musical ever made He was 87 Comden and Green wrote the book and lyrics, including two plum roles for themselves The duo received Kennedy Center honors in 1991 That same year Comden and Green reunited with Bernstein on Broadway for "Wonderful Town," a musical version of "My Sister Eileen Edie Adams was her winsome sister Eileen |
