Description

Nomi Malone sets out for Las Vegas to become a showgirl. After working as a stripper, she gets her big break at a chorus line audition for the Stardust Casino production, 'Goddess.' She soon finds out that 'showbiz' is a rough-and-tumble world--is she tough enough to claw her way to the top? And if so, is it really worth it?

No matter what anyone says this will forever be my favorite movie of all time. The sheer audacity of this film makes it an immediate cult classic and a misunderstood gem. Essentially a loose remake of All About Eve, Showgirls sets out to tell a fairly straight-forward tale of a woman on a quest to rise above her previous station in life and the (correct) assumptions made of her due to her appearance. The over the top gyrating and extreme nudity must follow due to the setting and story being told.

ShowGirls which is meant to show us what living in Las Vegas and being a showgirl is really like. Is more of a Melo-dramtic look at vegas and life itself and what happens when your a pretty stripper.Elizabeth Berkley plays Nomi Malone a ditsy blonde with a tragic past (which is never really revealed).Everyone who even gets a glance and Nomi suddenly is awestruck with the fact that she is gorgeous. which needless to say is what the whole movie is about. When Nomi gets noticed by Cristal Connors(Gina Gershon), Nomi becomes a ShowGirl and over a short length of time begins to hate Cristal.then Nomi has the feeling she has to show up Cristal. showgirls is a dramatic yet, funny film that Co-stars Kyle Maclachlan, Robert Davi and Glenn plummer.
