Crazy Streets

Elaine has been mugged, fired, dropped by her agent and she's ready to end it all. Instead, she accidentally holds up a wealthy couple and winds up with a full-length mink and a full-blown mystery that changes her life for good.

Internationally-acclaimed actress Hanna Schygulla stars as Elaine Hines, a toilet seat company temp by day and would-be novelist by night, whose search for fame and fortune lead to murder and mistaken identity in this offbeat comedy of errors. Hoping to return the coat, Elaine finds herself on the trail of an elusive woman called Lulu (Deborah Harry). When a cryptic note takes her to a mobster's uptown hideaway, she walks straight into a shootout - and straight away with a briefcase of greenbacks. After turning herself into the police, Elaine's wildest dreams come true as she becomes published, rich and New York's trendiest heroine. But her troubles aren't over yet in this wacky tale of two women and one unforgettable misadventure in the tradition of Desperately Seeking Susan.

  I normally love movies set in the 80s when NYC was sleazy
  
  I love Deborah Harry and thin Alec Baldwin but I found the plot to be very poorly constructed, i.e., wtf was this movie all about?!? I genuinely enjoyed some of... read more »
