If you love the 80's this is your movie!

I actually saw this film as a kid in the Wakulla Motel, while waiting for a space shuttle blast. We all learned to bodyboard and watched this film late at night while our minders went to bed. Having searched for 25 years for this film, I can honestly say that it is FREAKING AWESOME!!! It's the adult version of the Kim Cattrall film "Mannequin". No, Really, it is. The story is that a hot girl dresses up windows, complete with "Hollywood" as played by Meshach Taylor and a boyriend as played by John Cusack. This film represents everything that was awesome about the 1980's. Diane Lane is hot without being gratuitous. Lots of ridiculous panty shots (Diane gets home after getting her job and strips down to a satin teddy) but you so buy the character that it dosen't seem outlandish. Believe me, I have actually known girls in Austin that behave exactly this way. The whole film is a warning to women who feel liberated enough to display their sexuality in public. You may very well pick up a guy like this.
