Kylie Minogue 'Lights, Camera, Action' by Sophie Muller

Rob Ulitski - 2nd Oct 2024

Sophie Muller orchestrates another sensational vehicle for the brilliant renaissance of Kylie Minogue - here in full diva mode, but with arch sense of wit firmly intact.

The song Lights, Camera, Action is the jumping off point for film-set scenario where Kylie plays both the on-screen pop/movie star we know and love, and also a super-demanding creative auteur who takes over her persona when the cameras stop rolling.

But the latest in a run of smash hit collaborations between Muller, co-director Theo Adams and Minogue does not rely upon the device of Kylie's dual personality, or even really pursue it. It's the platform for Kylie's wonderful performance, and a blockbuster climax in the video-within-the-video, captured on numerous formats, where she stands imperiously unfazed and miraculously unscathed amidst total windblown chaos.

Pure showbiz, brilliantly done. Marvellous.
