New York City Girl
1982Smithereens is a 1982 American drama film directed by Susan Seidelman[1] and starring Susan Berman, Brad Rijn (billed as "Brad Rinn"), and punk rock icon Richard Hell.[2] The film follows a narcissistic young woman[3] from New Jersey who comes to New York City to join the waning punk subculture, only to find that she's gravitated towards Los Angeles; in order to pay her way across country, she engages in a number of parasitic relationships, shifting her allegiances to new "friends" in an ongoing effort to ultimately endear herself to someone who will finance her desired lifestyle.[4]
Smithereens marked the debut of Oscar-nominated screenwriter Ron Nyswaner (Philadelphia) and features a score by The Feelies. It was the first American independent film invited to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival.[5] Smithereens is a precursor to Seidelman's next film, Desperately Seeking Susan; both films share similar themes of female identity and self-reinvention.
