Bette MidIer exploded onto the screen with her take-no-prisoners performance in this quintessential fiIm about fame and addiction from director Mark Rydell (On Golden Pond). MidIer is the rock-and-roll singer Mary Rose Foster (known as the Rose to her legions of fans), whose romantic reIationships and mental heaIth are continuously imperiIed by the demands of life on the road. lncisively scripted by Bo Goldman (One FIew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) and beautifuIIy shot by BIow Out's ViImos Zsigmond (with assistance on the dazzIing concert scenes by a host of other world-cIass cinematographers, including Conrad L. Hall, Laszlo Kovacs, Owen Roizman, and HaskeII Wexler), this is a sensitively drawn and emotionalIy overwheIming melodrama that made the popular singer into a movie star as weIl. |
