Summary: Parker Posey as the Holly Golightly of her Generation
Review: Parker Posey plays Mary, a NYC "Party Girl" who goes from party to party, dance club to dance club, just wanting to have fun. Mary is basically broke, but her lifestyle requires her to act as is she did. She has designer clothes, but only because she steals they from closets at the parties she attends. Of course, her life is a rather sterile existence, because she never connects with anyone else on any real level. "Party Girl" captures the beginning of Mary's downward spiral, and that is when first time director Daisy von Scherler Mayer throws in the monkey wrench: Mary has a crush on Mustafa (Omar Townsend) a falafel vendor (really) and ends up moonlighting as a library clerk. In this case, love means having to learn the Dewey Decimal system. Many might find this plot twist to be totally absurd, but, hey, I happen to like the absurd. Besides, it still fits with the theme of the film, which is not that Mary needs to out grow being a Party Girl, she simply needs to be cherished. "Party Girl" would make an interesting double feature with "Breakfast at Tiffany's," although Posey will suffer in comparison to Audrey Hepburn. But the two are definitely soul sisters and Posey's performance certainly elevates this film.

Summary: Hilarious!
Review: Part Girl is a great comedy,Parker Posey is endearing as this clueless clubkid trying to get her life together. If you are a Parker Posey fan you will love this movie. I can relate to some of the situations in the movie since i was into the NYC club scene in the mid and late 90's. It is really a shame however, that this dvd does not come in a widescreen edition. Hopefully they will release this movie in widescreen format sometime soon.
If you don't like Parker Posey or if you have never been to a club you won't enjoy the humour in this dvd...

Review: Party Girl is a must to watch. I have the video and tend to watch Parker Posey's hilarious portrayal of Mary, a girl who had a father without a conscience, and a mother with no common sense, over and over again. The lingo in the movie is so funny that I find myself reciting many phrases. I have followed Parker Posey's career since the soap opera "As The World Turns", when she played Tess, and she is a remarkable actress. I loved this hip comedy. It's a must see.

Summary: Parker Posey is the life of the Party
Review: Party Girl is an awesome movie. I own it and have seen it more times than I can count. Parker Posey is no doubt the Queen of Independent films. This movie randomly portrays the ups and downs of life, so you should see it even if you aren't a club kid or a librarian! Oh, and I'll have a falafal with hot sauce, a side order of baba ganoush and a seltzer, please.

Review: Rated 1 star. As low as it gets at rating these movies. I am trying to resell this at another website. Best to rent or borrow from local library.

Summary: Not a Party
Review: The story is unbelievable, the outfits were awful & the lighting could have been much improved. The only amusing bit in the movie occurs when the Party Girl attempts to explain myth of Sisyphus to her roommate.

Summary: A Side Order of Babaganoush
Review: This has got to be one of the most innovative and tongue-in-cheek independent films of all time. I didn't know anything of the film until last year, and totally got the reason why it was revered as a cult classic among those with brains and a sense of humor. The great thing about this movie is the leading lady, Parker Posey. Anyone who doesnt crack up the moment she opens her mouth has obviously had a seriously deprived childhood. Among all contemporary actresses, theres not one that has the instinctive comic likeability and timing that Posey has. Well, maybe Lisa Kudrow, but shes busy wasting away her life on 'Friends'. Parker plays Mary, a Party Girl to reckon with ('I'm a girl who parties like a man', the film's soundtrack tells us). However, with bills to pay and the feeling of self-worth to satisfy, Mary falls at the feet of her godmother, who gives her a job at the library. While the film itself is irreverent, the wondrous job it extracts from its' leading cast is superb. Parker's Middle Eastern lover, her gay best friend, and her English DJ room-mate, all spicen up the proceedings, as Mary works her way through this thing called life, only to discover that the only thing that really matters is the ability to party the best you can. Aside from spouting some of the most unfortgettable one-liners, Parker's sullen performance as a librarian, and her transformation into a care-a-hang nightlife girl is extremely watchable. I personally preferred her performance here to the more respected one she gave in the dark 'The House of Yes'. Its also far better and substantial than the one she gave us in 'Henry Fool'. The film also has a stunning soundtrack. The only pity is that it is not yet available on DVD. While other Parker flicks such as 'Best in Show', 'Clockwatchers' and even 'Guffman' are all getting the DVD treatment, its high time someone woke up and put this to digital disc. Highly recommended.

Summary: As only Parker Posey can do...
Review: This is a great Parker Posey film. It may seem cheesy at first, but it gets better. I love this film the more I watch it. Parker Posey plays Mary, who works at the library at first against her will but she grows to love the library along with the falafel boy. There are several classic Parker moments as only Parker can do them. Watch this film with the intent of watching Parker do her thing.
