A young ranch hand (Jon Erik Hexum) in Nevada is discovered by a seductive modeling agent (Joan Collins), who owns her own chic Manhattan modeling agency. She persuades him to leave his quiet life and begin a modeling career in New York. Directed by Irving J. Moore (DYNASTY: THE REUNION). This should have been a trashy fun piece of "camp" but it takes itself so seriously as if it were a hard hitting look into the decadence of Manhattan's modeling scene that it's just ludicrous. Every cliche is on display and you just know where it's going. It's the kind of obvious movie that when Jeff Conaway as a fading male model gives a big speech about how his career is going down the drain, you immediately know he's going to die (either by suicide or an overdose) before the final credits appear. Trash like this makes Jacqueline Susann look like Carson McCullers! With Kevin McCarthy, Robert Walker Jr., Jennifer Edwards, Roxie Roker, Rosemarie Bowe Stack, Michael Anderson Jr. and Arte Johnson.
