I know that Marc and Fausto love this movie. Believe me I wanted to sooooo bad. I love Rupaul, I’ve followed her career from the days when she was doing crazy nightlife stuff in NY and I would catch bits about her in queer zines and her appearance in B-52s videos. Supermodel is one of my favorite 90’s pop-dance confections. She’s an icon and I admire her. but…….
Starbooty just didn’t work for me at all. I’m a huge fan of campy underground film, but this one was just not funny to me. It needed about 30-40 minutes edited out of very long drawn out scenes. I hate myself for hating this movie, but It was painful to watch. Sorry – I feel like a traitor saying it.
You are right though, Starbooty could have been a little a shorter. The lighting was bad in some scenes too, Lahoma Van Sant was so washed out in light that she looked like Casper the friendly ghost next to RuPaul. But there was some funny stuff in there.
But I really enjoyed having RuPaul on the show and it was a delight to talk to the Supermodel to the World. She was a lot of fun.
I really loved this podacast and it was great that you were able to have Ru Paul on it. I really thought he made some great points about how we all need to be a little more involved in what is going on around us as far as issues and events. I think the FOF has been a great vehicle in doing some of this by promoting awareness amidst all the humor.
I have not seen the movie yet but I will check it out. I guess I should not be expecting anything Oscar worthy. But you know, Ru is such a wonderful and funny person… I just love anything that sexy thang does!
