Controversial
“It's what the gossip's all about – Now see it on the screen!”
1981•1h 56m•6.5•Released
Drama
Brocka's potboiler about the rise of a starlet is the quintessential rags-to-riches, prey-turned-predator story, brimming with true-life anecdotes and an authentically acerbic sense of the seamier side of show business.
