Heat

A pool, a crummy hotel, a luxury mansion, and the ever-retreating charade of showbiz and stardom. Sylvia Miles plays an ageing actress with her hooks into Little Joe. Little Joe plays an out-of-work ex-child star in a TV Western series, buffeted languidly by circumstance. Andrea Feldman plays an unloved child/mother. Sunset Boulevard as it never was, often looking like a softcore foray into poolside sex. Some great lines, some campy sequences, much humour.
