Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

greenheart When I started watching this, it just came across as a gentle movie that was a little hippy in the way it looked, the music, the vintage cars and great views of San Francisco. I had to smile at the Model Shop where guys would be given a camera to photo the model of their choice and then get the movie developed. There didn't seem to be much going in, but there was an undercurrent that kept cropping up of young men being given their draft call-up. The fact that they couldn't settle with this hanging over them and the loneliness, hopelessness and poverty this ticking time bomb could cause. Anouk Aimee had an accent that you could happily dive into and never be seen again. An understated movie and yet strangely compelling. My quote of the movie "It's the first time I've ever really thought about it, death. It's insane" Just like the young man in the movie, I hadn't really thought about it until it crept up on me as the movie progressed.

adonis98-743-186503 George Matthews is a young man who is having a bittersweet affair with a French divorcée in Los Angeles. Waiting to be drafted, he is unable to commit himself to anything or anybody, including his girlfriend Gloria. While trying to raise money to prevent his car from being repossessed, George is attracted to Lola, a Frenchwoman who works in a "model shop". Model Shop is a 1969 film with a cast of actors that are no familiar to me and with a storyline that was super boring. First of all the way this film ends was really weird, the perfomances weren't really that good to begin with and the overall premise of the movie although simple it felt pretty complex at times. (0/10)

NORDIC-2 Distinguished French New Wave writer-director Jacques Demy's first American film, 'Model Shop', is a belated sequel to 'Lola', his 1961 directorial debut. Both films feature Anouk Aimée as Lola, the sexy, somewhat mysterious love interest. In the earlier film Lola is a French "cabaret dancer" (prostitute) pursued by three romantic rivals. In the latter film Lola, now approaching middle age, works in a Los Angeles "model shop," i.e., a quasi-pornographic establishment that rents out cameras and beautiful pin-up models to amateur photographers. This time around Lola has only one ardent suitor: George Matthews (Gary Lockwood), a 26-year-old unemployed architect with a dimwitted 22-year-old girlfriend named Gloria (Alexandra Hay), a beloved Triumph TR3 about to be repossessed, and a newly arrived draft notice that might send him to Vietnam. After spotting Lola in traffic the usually blasé George is instantly smitten. He follows her back to the model shop and spends his last twelve dollars photographing her—and becoming more intensely infatuated. Lola submits to a one-night stand with George but will not allow the relationship to deepen: she only wants to return to her 14- year-old son in France as soon as she can afford the airfare. A desultory day-in-the-life saga, Model Shop beautifully evokes draft-era existential insecurity—and the desolate urban sprawl that is modern Los Angeles. The California rock band, Spirit, supplies the music. Trivia: Jacques Demy wanted Harrison Ford to play George Matthews but Columbia opted for Gary Lockwood, because of his starring role in Stanley Kubrick's '2001: A Space Odyssey' (1968) he was a much more famous actor at the time. More trivia: Fred Willard has an uncredited cameo as a gas station attendant. Further trivia: In 2005 Sundazed Records released Spirit's previously unreleased soundtrack album, 'Model Shop'. The film was a commercial failure. DVD (Region 2 – France; 2008); DVD (2009).
