Before there was the musical, there was the Adrienne Shelley film. This film is so dear to me. it’s so tender and full of complex characters and so obviously made by women.

The whole movie is a vibe, as the kids (still?) say, but every time I watch it (lost count but it's in the double digits by now) I'm especially floored by Shelley Duvall's perfect performance as style icon Millie Lammoreaux, who transforms from an obliviously overconfident working gal to the bewildered focus of roommate Sissy Spacek's obsessive attention as the two begin to swap identities to ... someone else in the film's final enigmatic five minutes. Surely the best film by Robert Altman, who said the story came to him in a dream.

oh my god. I went into this thinking yeah yeah fun pretty technicolour Powell & Pressburger postwar ballet film. and it is all of those things. but it is also PERFECT. dramatic and beautiful with queer and feminist overtones/undertones that are so exciting to identify in a 75 year old film and a plot that speaks to anyone caught between art and the conventions of love!! And it has a 17 minute hyperreal ballet sequence through the psyche! genuinely want to scream about it to everyone i’ve ever met
