Dozens of television cameras provide a provocative expose of our fame-obsessed culture in "Stardom," a spicy and darkly humorous tale of a young model's meteoric rise. The result is a unique reflection of celebrity in which life imitates art, art imitates life, and the media imitates anything and everything. "Stardom" is about the power of beauty and more importantly, about the power of the media -- and its preoccupation with celebrity.

A model stares at the camera. She is beautiful and her expression is blank. “It was fun,” she says of her life. “It was all fun, until it was not fun.” For the viewer, “Stardom” is not so much fun.

A clever and biting satire from Denys Arcand.

A+

Arcand succeeds by being both intimate and detached from his subject matter, namely, listening to the repetitive beats from the heart of the American star making machine.
