Summary: "Your new salary will be $55 thousand dollars a year."

Remember when $55 thousand a year was a lot of money? Yes, it was in 1987 when this movie was made. It depicts the perfect young man's fantasy - a mannequin comes to life as a beautiful young woman, only for him. Of course she returns to be a mannequin during the day, but at night she teaches Andrew McCarthy how to become a sought-after department store window-dresser. At the climax of the movie, when his mannequin is about to be shredded with other throw-aways, he saves her and she comes to life for good, spoiling the evil Roxie's ploy. At the end they get married, of course, in the department store window! Very light entertainment, but a perfect fantasy for those who don't want to put up with the real task of getting to know a real person.

Not me. You know how many Mikes there are in this here town? Plenty. Sometimes it's funny. That's why it's Mikey for me. Everyone knows that's me, and not some other Mike.

Besides, I wouldn't have posted that last bit. "...a perfect fantasy for those who don't want to put up with the real task of getting to know a real person." Ouch. Get a chill pill for that guy. Hey, Meester? It's a MOVIE! So get off your high and mighty soapbox already. You sound like a critic wannabe. If every movie were Shakesperian, then movie critics would be out of work.

I like that movie a lot, especially Kim Cattrall. Yum.

I remember when she was Valeris in Star Trek 6. Weird haircut. Came up with it herself too. More 'Vulcan' she said. Sure filled out the uniform nicely though. And the part when she mind melded with Spock? Yehaw, baby, make that noise!

Oh, I know that it was kind of a violation moment, but seriously. It's just a movie. Her gasps were lovely, don't'cha think?

OOhhh. Man, when she was in Big Trouble in Little China! Yeah, that was scrumdillyicious. I think it was the green eyes she had on. Oh yeah, and in Police Academy, when she described her thighs to Steve Guttenberg? Boy that was a delicious moment there...

Um. A bit off track I think... Anyway, it's not me...

I think its a law at least one of your boy children have MICHAEL in their name. My husbands 3 best friends are Mike. Hence called by their last names. My poor boy is named for them too.

Mannequin- never seen it. Eww he was lusting over a piece of plastic. The video was nothings gonna stop us now by Starship- it was very very BAD!

Aw, c'mon April! Ya gotta watch that one through from front to end. Sure, that's what everyone thinks, he's lusting (and more!) on a piece of plastic, but I'm tellin' ya, if it looks like Kim Cattrall and comes to life when we're alone, AND likes me too? Heck ya, I don't care what anyone says about it, I'm mackin' on a mannequin.

That song wasn't the worst, and isn't played throughout the movie either. I guarantee ya, you'll like the flick.

Or not. Hey, I'm not everyone. (<--- bonus points for knowing whom/what I reference there. And it's not a movie!)
