At first glance Paper Dolls, the 1982 TV movie which spawned a short-lived primetime soap, looks like glittering 80's camp wearing neon pink blush, wrapped in a gold lamé Nolan Miller dress. But the movie reveals itself to be a smart, sensitive examination of the modeling industry––how it uses and sexualizes teenage girls, and the price those girls pay.

Darryl Hannah, excellent in an early starring role, plays a barely disguised version of Brooke Shields, hounded by her stage mother (Joan Hackett). Alexandra Hall plays a suburban teenager, new to modeling, with no idea what's in store for her. Glamorous Joan Collins is the jaded modeling agent who makes it all happen.

Directed by Oscar-winner Edward Zwick (Courage Under Fire, Legends of the Fall), Paper Dolls is an amazing mix of high-camp 80's fashion and genuinely moving performances and filmmaking.
