The set-up is enticing

Mikey Madison plays the title role, a New York lap dancer. Then the story hooks us. She marries unwisely (a Russian oligarch's immature young son) and then finds herself in a terrible jam.

There's a stand-out performance from Madison but all the performances are good

The glut of nudity and sex is unfashionable for a mainstream picture, but both this and the high drama – increasingly comic – have a rare vibrancy. Striking locations too – Las Vegas and out-of-season Coney Island are skilfully captured. At well over two hours, it's too long, but it just about holds our attention because we can't imagine how it's going to end.

The conclusion is not a disappointment

London Film Festival screenings sold out and I'm not surprised. This is dynamic stuff from a fearless director.. See the full lineup for the 62nd New York Film Festival this Fall.
