This was Ann Jillian's shining moment. I saw this on Amazon Prime and thought it would get funny camp like most bios. I was pleasantly surprised
I never cared much for Ann Jillian during her TV heyday. I disliked that white shag hairdo and her two dimensional chacter on Its A Living..
How ironic that is become a dan watching her play the one dimensional Mae West.
Jillian is fun, charismatic and endearing. She is careful to not make West into a total caricature.
I don't know how historically accurate this film was, but it seems to have shown regard for the star and her struggle to find fame.
