Making of a Male Model

About This Movie

Making of a Male Model is one of those TV movies that really captures the era of the early '80s, both in its fashion sense and its storytelling pace. The dynamic between Kay Dillon, played by the ever-commanding Joan Collins, and the rugged good looks of John Davidson as Tyler Burnett, creates this interesting tension. The setting shifts from the wide-open skies of Nevada to the bustling streets of New York, which adds a nice contrast. The film dives into themes of ambition and the cost of fame, wrapped in a romantic package that feels well-crafted for television. The performances have this earnest quality, with Collins' sharp wit balancing Davidson's naive charm. Not the most polished, but it has a heart that resonates, especially for fans of the genre.
