CGiii Comment

This is Altman at his worst...we know, he's a revered filmmaker...but, sometimes when you are told that 'someone' is a film-making genius...a rather large pinch of salt is required!

The opening music is diabolical. The dialogue is a relentless monotony.

A masterclass in cinematic torture.

The(ir) Blurb...

Pinky is an awkward adolescent who starts work at a spa in the California desert. She becomes overly attached to fellow spa attendant, Millie when she becomes Millie's room-mate. Millie is a lonely outcast who desperately tries to win attention with constant up-beat chatter. They hang out at a bar owned by a strange pregnant artist and her has-been cowboy husband. After two emotional crises, the three women steal and trade personalities until they settle into a new family unit that seems to give each woman what she was searching for.
