Desperation Boulevard

This is a small low budget movie about a child star who is no longer in the spotlight trying to get it back. Filled with cameos of other chid stars -- including a couple who killed themselves.

Judy -- who was a strange standup comic and never admitted being married to Emo Philips -- was actually a pretty deent actress.

The other reviews here say this movie is hilarious. It isn't. And I don't think it's meant to be. It's more of a rather straighforward heartfelt film with Judy putting in a believeable performance.

She plays a few different personas on her way back to the top. Most of the scenes are humorous but the film does get bogged down by repetitiveness of the plot.
