Episode 565: Blonde Ambition (1981)

We continue our march through March with a look at the adult classic Blonde Ambition. Released in 1981, the film was years in the making. It stars Suzy Mandel and Dory Devin as Sugar and Candy Kane, sisters who have a song and dance act in a podunk town. One fateful evening they encounter the dashing Stephen Carlisle III (played by Eric Edwards), a prince of sorts who carries not a glass slipper but a valuable jewel -- and, wouldn’t you know it, a duplicate of a worthless replica owned by the Kane sisters. I don’t think that I need to say it but…. Wackiness ensues.

Interviews include John Amero, Kurt Mann, LaRue Watts, and Larry Revene. April Hall of The Rialto Report and Heather Drain join Mike to discuss this amazing musical.
