Who Are You, Polly Maggoo? (French: Qui êtes-vous, Polly Maggoo?) is a 1966 French film directed by William Klein.
It is a satirical art house movie spoofing the fashion world and its excesses. It stars Dorothy McGowan as supermodel Polly Maggoo being followed by a French television crew. It also stars Grayson Hall as Miss Maxwell, a fashion magazine editor modeled after Diana Vreeland,[1] and Philippe Noiret as the TV reporter and director. Also appearing in the film are Jean Rochefort, Sami Frey, and Alice Sapritch.
Who are you, Polly Maggoo? Is anything but consistent. Large sections of the film don’t quite work, especially when overly focused on narrative tangents and wordplay. The best verbal gags often work in conjunction with a contradiction of images. Watch Who Are You, Polly Maggoo? Movie - Videos for the - Full Length Movie and Video Clips on MeFeedia. William Klein's 1966 satire follows the experience of an American model in Paris, who finds herself the subject of a vapid French TV show.
McGowan was an Irish-American model prior to the film; she modeled for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar.[2]
After the release of the film, which was McGowan's first and only film role, she disappeared from public view and apparently neither acted nor modeled again, according to Klein.
