Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)
Wonderful movie! This is a semi-hilarious mock documentary about a teen beauty contest in Minnesota. Anywhere from hilarious to ridiculous and all points in between. Believe me, this is far away from a teeny movie even though a lot of young actresses are in like; Kirsten Dunst, Denise Richards, Brittany Murphy and Amy Adams. Also Kirstie Alley, Ellen Barkin and Allison Janney are brilliant.
Plot:
In a small Minnesota town, the annual beauty pageant is being covered by a TV crew. Former winner Gladys Leeman wants to make sure her daughter follows in her footsteps. Explosions, falling lights, and trailer fires prove that. As the Leemans are the richest family in town the police are pretty relaxed about it all. Despite everything, main rival (but nice) Amber Atkins won’t be stopped. There could well be more death and disappointment to come.
