I thought she was stunning in this movie..I was reading from old posts folks thought she was plain. She is a good actress too...when she says to Prince "Take me back to the airport, now!" Her following exrpessions were very good, it was like "Did he take me seriously?"..
Oldfriends, are you taking pictures of your TV as you watch the movie? [Edited 4/12/11 9:34am] | |

Fantastic thread! Great info.
I bet it was tough for Prince doing such a grand opening for something that he knew was a piece of crap.
The fact that he cleaned house right afterwards wasn't unexpected, even if those who got let go had nothing to do with it's failure. He just wanted distance from all of it.

I just watched a trailer for the movie on youtube. At the beginning there seems to be clips from a deleted scene. Anyone knows about this? Prince is dressed as in the above picture. The wooh is on the one! | |

What did you type in the view that one?
Watching a few traileers... wow it was exciting, it could almost be misleading, because 4 some reason with all the dancing the G&B playing I'm expecting some band action.
I love the trailer, | |

This again could have been a killer movie, it could have put Prince on another level. The artistry was good the visuals were good the music & clothing were hot. What was missing was band performances and the original director. Prince is not a director.

So really what was missing was a good story, better acting, more excitement and a better director. Pretty much most of the things that go into making a good movie. As much as I like Prince, UTCM is a terrible movie. Self indulgent, boring, poorly acted, terribly written, awkwardly directed... just not a good one.

This was his best era for outfits TGE notwithstanding. The more boyish and effeminate he is, the better. | |

ok U made me laugh. But yeah I think you can see parts of the story line that were originally good, from the original director, but when Prince's (fired her...) he changed the script and the original concept was seriously lost.
Where Prince messed up was taking Morris Day & Jerome and replacing Morris with himself. The drastic change in 'character' was a bit too much. Most Prince fans didn't know that Prince, they knew Morris. The acting over all was good outside of Prince.
the 'more excitement' would have been band performances. Again. I loved the Opening movie scene, I thought it was really good, | |

the whole movie is completely bizarre, but it is what it is. i see it as modern art & something not too serious..prince ideas & interpretation is just a jumble of fantasy. i actually see this movie as an extravagant video 4 parade. if i wasn't a fan it doesn't matter how different it might have been it would have made no more of an impact, but i understand it just the way it is

That's cool. Everyone can see it differently. I just thought most of the acting was bad... including Kristen Scott Thomas, Steven Berkoff, Emmanuelle Sallet and almost everyone else. It was just a stinker! I respect what he tried but sometimes when you overextend yourself, you fall on your face and he did. He knew it was a failure and has basically said so many times. That said, I bought the DVD, so what do I know? lol The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018.

This is a brilliant thread, especially the listing of the complete score for UTCM. A very underrated, underappreciated movie which needs several watchings to kind of dig it.
Thanks for the post, Old Friends 4 Sale. | |
