Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)

"Drop Dead Gorgeous" is a 1999 mockumentary-style comedy that skewers small-town beauty pageants with dark humor and a cast willing to go for broke on the satire. Amy Adams appears in an early role here, years before she became a household name, playing one of the pageant hopefuls caught up in the escalating chaos. The film's cameras catch her in a couple of unguarded scenes that fans still hunt down, with 2 clips on site showing her bare and exposed in ways that stand out against her later, more buttoned-up filmography. For anyone curious about Adams before the awards buzz, this hub delivers the goods in short, sharp doses.
