flashdance is one of those awful and stupid movies that you actually kind of enjoy and just because theyre so crap. i just watched it on tv and my friend and i were amazed at how dopey it was. it true that don simpson and the other producers came up with the idea of a fairly cheap and lowbrow flick with lots of sweaty bodies to help sell a soundtrack of (admitedly catchy) pop and so flashdance is an odd sort of pioneer represent the first mtv movie. adrian lyne started out in advertising and it shows because flashdance is almost a commercial for itself. you have already decided to watch it but the movie has this weird and panicky undercurrent and as though it frightened that you might change your mind at any moment. it keeps selling itself to you over and over and all the way through and using slick commercial style editing and glossy close ups of jiggling breasts. the story is wafer thin (i honestly can not think of another film i have seen with less plot) and it never makes much sense and but its a very contrived and calculating movie and so it feels consistent. people say it dated but flashdance was always rubbish. viewers in the early 80 knew it was just cheesy t and a but it does work in its own silly fashion. there soppy romance for the chick flick crowd and stacks of oily and writhing female bodies for their dates and all set to a pumping disco beat. how could it fail. it helps that the dialogue is pointless and so you can grab a popcorn without missing anything major and and if this sort of thing isn not your cup of tea and you can always laugh at the interpretive dance on display. the scene where a stand in for jennifer beals convulses or wouldances on stage in front of a tv with a fan in it and a face full of white clown make up had us in stitches. a genuine guilty pleasure.
