EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY

EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY
   Film (1988). De Laurentiis/Kestrel. Dir Julien Temple, starring Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey, Damon Wayans, Julie Brown. Screenplay Brown, Charlie Coffey, Terrence E. McNally. 100 mins. Colour.
   Three fur-covered humanoid aliens crash their spaceship in a swimming pool in the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles. They meet a Valley girl (Davis), who arranges for them to be shaved and trendily dressed. They learn about local customs. This very light comedy with songs (good words, so-so tunes) was made by a UK director who downplayed the alienness of the aliens (they are good at dancing, piano playing and sex) in favour of the alienness of the San Fernando Valley, photographed in lurid primary colours and observed with all the astonished voyeurism of some tyro anthropologist confronted by pygmy headhunters. EGAE is slight, but much funnier than MY STEPMOTHER IS AN ALIEN (1988), on a very similar theme.
