...ever heard of them? How can you take movies seriously? You go on the set with the script in your back pocket. You take it out and read: 'Let's see ... in this one Brando plays an Indian who attacks the stagecoach.' O.K., let's roll 'em. Commercialized glop, not worth thinking about...

That is the notion behind Sparkle, a casually enjoyable excursion into the predictable heartbreak and unlikely triumphs of show biz. Sister (Lonette McKee) is the eldest, beautiful, with a fatal instinct for the wrong kind of man. Dolores (Dwan Smith) is vaguely uneasy about everything, whether it is performing or walking down the Harlem streets. Sparkle, the youngest (Irene Cara), is the most innocent, and perhaps the most talented. Under the tutelage of a good fellow...
