Perfect camp?
|
To be honest I didn't find this nearly as campy as I thought it would be. The years have been kind to this film in that regard. As traditional Hollywood acting has gone downhill, and as this movie had incredible production values, it actually isn't a whole lot more campy than what you'd find playing this weekend. But it is a whole lot more interesting!
It's got larger than life characters, good dialog, tragedy, comedy, great sets, and the beautiful Sharon Tate. I'd say it only falls into camp mostly during some of Patty Duke's scenes, especially towards the end. But it's necessary to have a bit of soap opera to a movie like this. It wouldn't sit right if it didn't.
If you've avoided this movie based on its reputation I highly recommend you pick it up and try it for yourself. It's quite a unique and exciting movie experience whether you are into "campy cult classics" or not. |
