The two-part Hulu documentary looks at Shields' career, from the unsettling '80s stardom of 'Pretty Baby' and 'Blue Lagoon' to her journey toward finding her voice and her agency.
As Wilson, Shields and the doc’s talking heads quickly acknowledge, it wasn’t like pockets of society weren’t disturbed and maybe even grossed out by the idea of Shields as a pre-teen prostitute or the centerpiece of a series of sexually suggestive Calvin Klein ads. But there was a more pervasive fascination.
It isn’t just that Shields is protective of her image and her mother’s image ; she simply isn’t interested in being scathing or dishy or in playing the role of advocate. Footage fromand especially talk show interviews — so many creepy talk show interviews — from the time do the best job of underlining how unique Shields’ version of stardom was, and how poorly some pockets of the entertainment industry handled it, while the various talking heads just do their best to add value.
There are elements here that hint at a better template. When Shields is in casual conversation with Wentworth, rather than sitting, over-styled and over-composed, in front of a generic backdrop, she’s a different person; the documentary could have used more of that.
