Swimsuit

About This Movie

So, 'Swimsuit' from 1989 is this quirky little TV movie that dives into the world of modeling with a comedic twist. You’ve got Mrs. Allison, who runs this swimsuit company, and her not-so-bright assistant Willard along with Brian, her right-hand man. The film peeks into the lives of various aspiring models, showcasing their personal struggles amidst all the photo shoots and fashion drama. The pacing’s pretty relaxed, allowing for some charming character moments. You can’t ignore the practical effects – or lack thereof – especially when it comes to the swimwear choices. It feels like a time capsule of late '80s attitudes towards beauty and ambition, all wrapped in this light-hearted comedy vibe. Definitely a product of its time.
