Chastity (1969)

Rate: 2
Viewed: 12/21

12/21: Showing off a bored look constantly, Cher makes her screen debut in Chastity, and my advice to you is: RUN.

There's a movie poster that asks: "What's wrong with Chastity?" The correct answer is: everything. It's a stupid, pointless movie with lots of Cher walking, running, moping around, and talking to herself. She and her husband Sonny Bono spent half a mill to make her a star, but the movie flopped so badly that they ended up owing the IRS $270,000.

Nothing happens. No great revelations are made. It's about getting Cher naked, but she almost never is, resulting in a big tease for nothing. Finally realizing how fucking useless she has been, Chastity breaks down and cries about it. Perhaps a major change in her attitude is needed?

All in all, Chastity was so bad that Cher didn't act again for more than a decade.
