This review is from: Biography - Ann-Margret: Sugar & Spice [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Some of the celebrity friends who add their two cents gush a bit much, but how can you blame them when they're speaking of titian-haired swinger Ann-Margret, icon of the '60's and comeback kitten of the '70's(her later turn toward TV movies in the '80's and '90's is really another story altogether--Sugar & Spice Part 2?). Nicely narrated and informative, this special doesn't skimp on the clips, the most enjoyable being A-M's personality test for Fox. A great story, worthy of a film itself, Ann-Margret's Biography is one of the very best produced.

As a long time fan I loved the Spice but the Sugar made it twice as nice. No better way to describe this superstar! She never fails to entertain. He biography is no different. A facinating person who has brought me years of enjoyment.
