The Press Reviews
There is also an undeniable pleasure simply in people-watching. In "Ready to Wear," you will see Lauren Bacall, Harry Belafonte, Teri Garr, Forest Whitaker, Naomi Campbell, Lyle Lovett, Christy Turlington, Cher and countless others, sometimes shot in scenes that feel improvised in the midst of real events. The result is a little like a comedy crossed with a home movie. Full Review
Eye-catching and fitfully amusing, net effect proves frivolous and ephemeral, closer to the director's "Health" and "A Wedding" than to "Nashville" or "Short Cuts." Full Review
