Madonna & Rosanna Arquette: Making the Desperately Seeking Susan Poster

Описание: In the fall of 1984, I worked as the production publicist on Susan Seidelman's "Desperately Seeking Susan." The studio asked me to set up a special photography session with Madonna and Rosanna Arquette, and photographer Herb Ritts. The photo shoot was only supposed to be about getting publicity shots for magazines to use to accompany interviews, but I decided I would try and get a poster too.

This video is the first in what will be a series of videos about my wild and woolly career as a movie publicist. : ) Enjoy!
