DVD: "Naked in New York"

Do not fault me for enjoying the early 90s. I was thirteen, and these were years, yes, years of Wonder. "Reality Bites" taught me how to be cool. "Singles" taught me how to love. "Empire Records" taught me how to glue quarters to the floor and roll my eyes as uncool people tried to pick up said quarters Good times!



"Naked in New York," "Annie Hall" called. It wants its dignity back. Also its plot, themes, wardrobe-centered motifs, and characterization. Everything since the release of "Annie Hall" wants its colorful whimsy-in-the-face-of-so-much-etc back.



"Naked in New York," you are terrible. People involved in "Naked in New York," you have made an awful decision. Is Daniel Argrant your drug dealer? What does he have on you that made you appear and/or star in "Naked in New York"? I mean, William Styron, really? Really?! Eric Bogosian? Kathleen Turner? More importantly: Mary-Louise Parker? Eric Stoltz? Did you forget you have talent, charm, and the ability to act? Most importantly: MARTIN SCORSESE PRESENTS? Jesus fucking Christ. This is the worst movie since "Funnny Ha Ha." Aside from Burroughs's "Naked Lunch," this is the worst thing ever made. It's worse than poop, and possibly even worse than "Singles," upon reflection.
