BLAST (Bi, Lesbian and Straight Together) Women of WPB

Both touching and surreal, this 1987 film is Todd Hayne’s infamous 45-minute docudrama on the life of Karen Carpenter, shot almost entirely with Barbie dolls!
……….
SYNOPSIS ….. Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story is — somewhat obviously — the tale of Karen Carpenter and her struggle with anorexia nervosa. (The family is portrayed in this film by Barbie-type fashion dolls.) The film portrays her as a talented performer struggling under the pressures of a pop career, a smothering family, and her perfectionist, career-driven brother Richard. She attempts to create her own identity, but finds that her anorexia is the only way she can control any aspect of her life; her parents didn’t want her to move out and establish her independence, and her brother is only focused on work. She tries desperately to maintain normal eating habits, but in the end is unable to deal with her stress any other way. Her addiction to ipecac syrup eventually leads to her death.
