Featured review
Laughable
Jamie Lee Curtis is not only a terrible actress, but also devoid of charm and attractiveness. She was terribly miscast. She inherited none of her parent's charisma or looks, let alone talent.
This terrible TV movie is an insult to poor Dorothy. It is painful to watch.
Curtis should stick to cheap horror movies, which she has done for the most part. Now her career is reduced to be a lookalike stand in for Anderson Cooper.
Star 80 is a far superior film, though I don't think either one do Dorothy Justice. Both are basically exploiting the lady's tragic end.
Rest in peace Dorothy. You deserved so much better.
