Quite simply put, it's one of the best films I have ever seen. Putting aside the facts that some of it is not quite accurate, it is still brilliant.
I'd heard of this film some years ago but never had the opportunity to see it. But recently, I decided to give it a shot, not know...( read more)

REVIEW
This film is a poignant story about Gia Carangi, ...( read more)
angelina jolie was excellent and the soundtrack was solid, but everything else about this film was terrible. it was trashy, oddly directed, and incredibly boring. not worth the watch.
Pensare che questa è probabilmente la migliore interpretazione della Jolie, in tempi non sospetti, in un film per la tv.
No recent reviews.
who the fuck are you...chawndie2krunk? =that is a crap shit....not the fact that angelina is playing a lesbian...in that movie...why didn`t you see the drug problem?????...a lot of people confrunt with ...and this could prevent others... but you didn`t see only that in this movie it was a lesbian...:)))) how stupid can you be?
i think angelina jolie is artist that when she is not lesbian she acted this role and its very great movie that showes mothers acting in children life is so important i think gia is not real lesbian she search for one mother its very artistic movie
i love this movie, i love angelina.. this one's i cannot forget even if time passes by..i first watched it when i was in high school i want to watch it again.. her life, gia is nakakapanghinayang.. she only needs to be guided.
It is very loosely based on the real life events of Gia Carangi...
They took a few facts and fluffed them up so to speak..
They left out all of the ugliness the life of a junkie is about after your pretty looks are gone along with your constant cash flow...
Gia lived a relatively short and very tragic life. She was a lesbian who turned to prostitution to support a Heroin habit she felt she couldn't or didn't want to break.
Don't take it from me, read the book written by Stephen Fried.
The movie rocked, Gia rocks, Angelina as Gia rocks, Angelina as herself rocks!
This is a must have for anyones collection.
