      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    With a thing for older man, Heidi's (Discala) much older boyfriend Ivan (Davi) introduced her to Alex (Fricker), Madame to the stars. Alex brought Heidi into the business and taught her everything she knew, and when she found herself in trouble she asked Heidi to help her out. Heidi did more than that, and when Alex said, "Call Me" Heidi ignored her requests and took over the business herself, making it more successful than ever. But betraying those who cared about her was Heidi's biggest mistake, as they were there to witness both "The Rise And Fall Of Heidi Fleiss." (Tricia Spears)

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced DVD picture has a slightly soft appearance, although details can be very nicely rendered.

    Soundtrack:
    For most of the film, the Dolby

    Reason #29 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I originally subscribed to your magazine because I am a home theatre junkie, and it gave me one more way to feed my addiction. However, I find the one thing that I really enjoy is full access to your subscriber Web Site. I'm on it every day looking up a DVD review or reading an up-to-the minute article on what's going on in the world of home theatre. It's first on my favorites list.
