  • Summary: A comic, yet troubling look at the world of celebrities. Stardom focuses on Tina Menzhal (Pare), a model who hits it big and grows dependent on the media hype surrounding her every move.

  1. It may be the first movie that mirrors, in its very syntax, the ''snap crackle and pop'' narcotic superficiality of the E! channel. I mean that as a compliment.

    For all the film's cleverness -- and it's often very clever -- it's as thin as its heroine.
  3. 30
    Through a messy series of news reports, interviews, talk shows, and behind-the-scenes footage, Arcand creates a cinema vérité spoof that's not nearly as penetrating or enjoyable as he thinks.

    Brilliant. You need to watch it two or three times to start getting it. Hint: except for Tina and her family, just about everyone either lies or deceivdes. Expand
