About this product
Product Information
Rosanna Arquette is Roberta Glass, a bored New Jersey yuppie housewife who finds escapism from her mundane life in the New York personal ad exploits of a flighty bohemian named Susan (Madonna). When Roberta travels to the city to witness an ad-inspired meeting between Susan and her lover Jimmy, she bumps her head, loses her memory, and for all intents and purposes, becomes Susan, thanks to a case of mistaken identity. As a result, she is pursued by crooks and other shady characters through the funky East Village of the early '80's. Quinn is the confused film protectionist who stumbles into the role of Roberta/Susan's protector. Madonna, not quite a superstar when this was filmed, uses this small role to show the sort of charisma she would soon shower upon the world in larger doses. Steven Wright, Giancarlo Esposito, Richard Hell, Ann Magnuson, John Lurie, and Arto Lindsay also turn up in small roles in this screwball '80's love letter to the downtown scene.Product Identifiers

Oldie but goodie back when Madonna was cool. It was short lived, but the movie was entertaining.
Ashamed Madonna jumped the shark shortly after making this movie. She showed so much potential back then.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A Total Blast From The 80's!
I actually got to see this movie at the Bleeker Street Cinema (as mentioned in the cab scene) So stoked to have this finally on DVD, after going through 2 copies of it on VHS tapes. I even still have the trinkets that were given out to promote the film. It is a very funny, enjoyable movie. The characters are all unique with their psychotic quirkiness. The movie truly captures the kitschiness of the 80's. I was a 20-something at that period of time, so I know...Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A classic 80's film.
This was a must have for my movie collection which includes 100s of movies from the 80's. If you like movies from that era this is great recommendation. The appearance of Madonna and her music is a bonus. Good well paced storyline with a happy but predicable ending.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
