Summary: This Is One Of The Worst Movies Ever Made!
Comment: I was not pleased with this movie.It was jerky and a bad attempt at some sort of bizarre film noir.Everything about this movie was hideous.Too much time wasted on long scenes where the characters just sat or laid around.This movie told me nothing about Frances Farmer.This movie sucks big time!I regret the purchase of this movie. F------

Summary: huge disappointment
Comment: The first thing to note is that this film does not feature the real Frances Farmer as the video info states. Rather it is a biopic which makes the 1982 version with Jessica Lange look like a masterpiece. As Frances, Sheila McLaughlin is abysmal. In some scenes she's not even blonde! And she looks more like Piper Laurie than Frances Farmer, who was petite and luminously beautiful. The film offers no greater insight into Frances than the Lange version, in spite of the publicists claim, and the direction is heavy-handed and humourless. A lot of the time it reads like a bad play with hardly any character interaction or drama. There is even some pseudo-Bergman touches which are almost laughable. In spite of the scant Frances Farmer titles available on video, a viewing of Come and Get It or Toast of New York is preferable to this disaster.
