Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
The Model digs into the sexual-political economy of Paris fashion through the experience of Emma (Danish model Maria Palm in her acting debut), a naive teen alone in a foreign land, chasing her dreams of fame and fortune.

rotten:
The bodies are thin in the Danish film "The Model" and so is the plot, though the real-life model who plays the lead role acquits herself well enough.

fresh:
A shallow but good-looking soap opera-like drama set in the world of high fashion.
