FANTASTIC MOVIE AND MUSIC!!
I have loved this movie for years and am watching it again now--the cast is great, the writing sharp and witty--it is honest and silly, and unpretentous. it is nice to seem the cream of the crop acting wise having so much fun. Loved Bill Withers and so many other musicians for the film (songs I had not heard in a while). GREAT ALL-AROUND EXPERIENCE!!

CHARMING COMEDY-MELODRAMA
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie and it is witty, insightful, and touching. The cover art for the DVD shows Josh Hartnett but the REAL stars are Alan Rickman, Rachel Griffiths, Bill Nighy, and Natasha Richardson.
When Griffiths appears at the end completely in the nude with fantastic tattooing and hairstyle it is enough to turn a gay man straight - what a body. She continues the very good work she did in "Muriel's Wedding."
Another under-rated actor in the movie is Warren Clarke who demonstrated his superb acting abilities in the Dalziel and Pascoe series on British television. He is touching and very funny as the mayor of the small town and the emcee for the "pageant".
Rickman as usual does extraordinary things with a smallish part and Bill Nighy, another under-rated actor, is great as his rival. The insights into high-fashion and competitive hairdressing is intriguing and some of the hairdoes are worthy of the court of Queen Marie Antoinette.
ALtogether a great movie and one that I will return to when I want to see accomplished British actors perform their art with aplomb.

Blow Dry
I was pleasantly surprised with this video. It was a welcome change to see Alan Rickman play the good guy in the end of this one. Josh Hartnett was great as the son trying to deal with finding a neutral position between too estranged parents. It had a great cast a decent story and was just fun to watch.

British are so damn gifted at movies like this
The British are so damn gifted at movies like this, that have a great script, awesome actors, great setting and great cinematography that actually makes you feel as if you are a part of the film. The story line is funny, sad and who ever knew hair could be formed into such wild and wonderfully eclectic designs. But is the end that is the keeper and if nudity can be funny as well as classy this is it.
