Welcome back to the 1980s! Reaganomics and recreational drugs; Madonna and MTV; Chicken Marbella and blackened anything; Country style! Shoulder pads! It’s all there in this romantic comedy set in media-empire New York City, where glossy magazines show readers how to live and how to love.
This sexy, sophisticated satire straight from the ‘80s pits magazine editor George Werble against the forces of disorder—his not-quite- ex-wife, his not-quite- new girl-friend, his crazy in-laws, his scary boss, his oddball staff, and even the Big Apple itself—in his quest to create the Next Great Magazine: Lifestyle, the torch-bearer of the New Ostentation. Watch George navigate The Fashionable Affair, “martini telepathy,” and weekend seminars on goat cheese. If his own scheming doesn’t trip him up, everything will turn out great, right?
Brazen, witty, and uproarious, Lifestyle perfectly captures the spirit of the time and place—a time and place that bears an amazingly uncanny resemblance to today’s world of ostentatious lifestyle.
