Burlesque (2010)

from Cinema Supercollider · host Cinema Supercollider

Cher and Christina Aguilera star in this backstage musical drama romance. Christina leaves Iowa for Hollywood and becomes obsessed with becoming a "burlesque" performer in the cabaret called "Burlesque." She claws her way up gently to the top, and gets a boyfriend, while the Pussycat Dolls do Bob Fosse-esque dancing. The actual plot hinges on the legal concept of "air rights." Cher sings a song. Alan Cumming plays Alan Cumming from "Caberet." Stanley Tucci is a gay producer/assistant/support figure for Cher. Megan tells stories about her own experiences in the neo burlesque scene, gives some tips on how to glue crystals to your costume, and discloses the often kinda scroungy performance spaces she worked in.
