Ann-Margret: Hollywood Movie Girls

1980 · 90 min

A glittery, tongue-in-cheek song-and-dance showcase that breezes by on star wattage and theatrical camp.

Starring
Ann-Margret, George Burns, Dom DeLuise
Tagline
Ann Margret's freewheeling musical salute to Hollywood's movie girls.
Overview
George Burns, Dom DeLuise, Danny De Vito, Dean-Paul Martin and Roger Moore provide arms for A-M to lean on as she impersonates Hollywood stereotypes, from a rejected script girl to an over-the-hill sex symbol. Highlights include Ann-Margret's slowed-down rendition of I Will Survive and a jaw dropping version of Stouthearted Men that looks like it is set in the backroom of a 70s gay club!
