Critiques (2)
Susan Sarandon and James Spader are just so good, such a great fit, even if they don't fit together, just like their characters don't, but that's what makes this interesting cinematic relationship work. It's human, it's sweaty, and it's unrealistic, but it's still a good romance and I enjoyed the ending.

The novel "White Palace" from 1987 was the first of two books by Glenn Savan. The film version came very early, and it responded to a current topic and the fact that as a debut it was a bestseller. As for the film, its appeal stands and falls on the chemistry between Susan Sarandon and James Spader, and that alone is enough for a good experience. In addition, there are interesting references to the operetta "Die Fledermaus" (operetta and opera are a symbol of a better situated class) or to the realities of Monroe's life (interest in her biography is a sign of the working class). Another similar romance is Frankie & Johnny.
