Directed by Susan Seidelman | 1985
With Madonna, Rosanna Arquette, Aidan Quinn, Mark Blum
"Arquette is consistently charming and inventive… and Madonna is given ample opportunity to strut her stuff."
—Dave Kehr, The Chicago Reader
A bump on the head and a case of amnesia leads a vanilla Jersey housewife (Arquette) to take on the persona of a Lower East Side-dwelling hipster (“Like a Virgin”-era Madonna) who’s being pursued by killers. Susan Seidelman’s goofball take on Rivette’s Celine and Julie Go Boating is a spirited slice of retro 80s cool featuring cameos from downtown mainstays John Turturro, Richard Hell, John Lurie, and more.
