Jackie's Back
Adios, Aretha. Desist, other divas. Jackie Washington has returned. Never heard of her? Well, that's because she exists only in this rascally Spinal Tap-ish faux documentary. On the eve of Jackie's comeback concert, an oily host (Tim Curry) takes us through her disastrous career: her one hit single, her flop blaxploitation movie (Whipped Creme). Whoopi, Liza and other no-last-name-needed stars contribute cameos, but it's the diva herself who really delivers. As Jackie, Jenifer Lewis purrs, snaps and belts--the complete funny lady in a roguishly funny film.
