Sandra Bernhard - I'm Still Here... Damn It! Movie Review

Sandra Bernhard, where did she go?

If this question has been troubling you, rest easy: She's Still Here, Damn It!

If you might be wondering where her career went, after a detour into D-grade films like Wrongfully Accused, Sandra has finally made it back to stand-up. And she's really pregnant. And she's got on a see-through nightie, all of which serves to entertain us when the jokes fall flat during this 90 minute Ode to Sandra's Ego. Recorded in a San Francisco nightclub, at least the fans are enthusiastic. Sandra frequently chit-chats with the audience, most of whom are curious about the large bulge in her abdomen, which gives the comedy performance some of it's best moments.

While Sandra's musical numbers aren't so hot, the DVD outtakes are definitely worth a look, where Ms. B cracks wise on her contemporaries, with a memorable jab at Rosie O'Donnell's sexuality. But overall, the Bernhard's jabs at celebrity tend to get tiresome, quickly. In the end, I'm Still Here... Damn It! feels more like a dying protest than a statement of fact.



Still here.
