It always puzzled me that people said she didn't have screen presence. I thought she was amazing in the movies, even if the movies themselves weren't 100%. She's great in Bloodhounds. Great in Dick Tracy. I just think the press wanted to take her down a peg or two.
I always loved this movie. Madonna was so great in it --- as were all the actors in it. I hope it gets rediscovered some day. Seems like only serious fans are even aware it exists.
jc - i always think this is the precursor and the RAW breathless manhoney. with a mix of lorraine from goose and tom tom. warren beatty FUCKED UP. end.
Warren Beatty over-edited the film, in my opinion. But Dick Tracy was still a fun movie --- and I think one of Madonna's best roles. She had a lot of great one-liners in it. Madonna could always play funny and sexy best.
Are they EVER going to release a special edition of Dick Tracy? Id like to see her performance of "More" uninterrupted, and I'm real curious about deleted scenes.

This was so bad it wasn't even shown at the time. I got VHS release years later. Needles to say, the video went unnoticed as well.
