The Making of "Tara Tara, Tara Tara" (1980)

The Wild, Untold Story Behind Seka’s Forgotten New York Drama **Download my free eBook on the early industry & other stuff** https://linktr.ee/retroglamor Inside the making of Tara Tara Tara Tara (1980), a strange, ambitious, and wildly overlooked New York feature that brought together some of mature cinema’s most iconic performers long before anyone realized how legendary they’d become. Shot during a Manhattan winter, the film stars Seka as Tara, a fashion model unraveling amid jealousy, desire, and family tension, supported by quality turns from Veronica Hart, Zebedy Colt, Samantha Fox, Merle Michaels, Ron Jeremy, and Bobby Astyr. This video dives into its improvised production style, the atmospheric music by David James, and the chaotic behind-the-scenes energy that shaped the movie. From Seka’s commanding performance to the accidental hall-of-fame cast orbiting around her, this is a deep dive into a forgotten slice of New York film history: messy, stylish, tense, and completely singular. ------------ All the videos, songs, images, and graphics used in the video belong to their respective owners, and I or this channel does not claim any right over them.
