I think that DSS is one of the best films that I've seen for a long time. The role reversing, boredom in suburban life, romance and humor are all terrific. I find Madonna attractive, but boring, in her videos. She was perfect here. I reccommend it without qualification. BTW, New York is becoming a source for good films. Blood Simple is another film on the top of my list.

I saw "Desparately Seeking Susan" recently, and was greatly disappointed. (*SPOILER*) The plot revolves around a housewife who, after hitting her head on a pole, forgets her former life and becomes a Madonna look alike. Later she hits her head again and her memories are restored! Truly the stuff that sitcoms are made of. Unfortunately this sitcom dragged on for well over the usual 30 minute limit, and cost $4.50 to see. I would not reccomend this film to anyone. Eddy Fries (!ucbvax!unmvax!nmtvax!eddy)
