An Old Fashioned, some red lipstick and a black dress…sigh, there’s just something undeniable about a good ol’ classic. The beloved Vegas showgirl may be an endangered species these days (insert tear), but “VEGAS! THE SHOW” preserved those feather-clad beauties and the likes of an era when everything was flashier and dripping with sophistication. What’s that you ask? Can a show filled with gorgeous and talented women a la Rat Pack era really exist in the here and now? Oh yes my friend, it sure can and all we have to say is raise that curtain and let the good times roll. With a little song, a lot of dance and that certain sultry allure that only old timey Vegas could pull off, this is a trip down memory lane and, well, it’s pretty legit. The costumes are fun, funky, sexy and so real. Ok, well maybe not the candy-themed costumes but hell, their Sammy Davis Jr. sure had us pining for an autograph. For a city that was built on pure, raw talent and obviously dolla dolla bills, this show celebrates iconic moments from the city's rich entertainment history through the decades that made the Vegas we know and love today. And we’ll tip our top hats to that.

5 things you didn't know about Sin City: The film's unique look came from shooting entirely on digital backlots with actors performing in isolation. This allowed for seamless inclusion of comic book-style visuals. Many of the props and costumes were digitally enhanced or entirely created in post-production, blending seamlessly with the live-action shots and enhancing the graphic novel aesthetic. Director Frank Miller insisted on stark, high-contrast black-and-white visuals, directly inspired by the original Sin City comics. This amplifies the gritty, noir atmosphere throughout the movie. Mickey Rourke, who played Marv, wore a facial prosthetic to closely resemble the character's iconic square-jawed look from the comics. Rourke's dedication led to a perfect transformation. Bruce Willis was passionate about playing the role of Hartigan due to his long-time appreciation for noir films and novels. His dedication shines through every suspense-filled scene.. #SinCity #QuentinTarantino #RobertRodriguez #MickeyRourke #CliveOwen #BruceWillis #JessicaAlba #FrankMiller #Crime #Thriller
