Released in some parts as ‘Slammer’ apparently, the tagline on the posters to this ’87 Madonna-fest ran “A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Bus Station” – although whatever the funny thing was obviously didn’t merit inclusion in this load of cobblers. Anyway, Madge takes a detour on the way to that bus station to uncover the real murderer responsible for the crime she’s just wrongly completed a lengthy sentence for. And it’s a comedy! Of course the real crime is that John ‘as worn by’ Mills got caught up in all this tosh. Mind you, he’s been in worse, though not much worse, mind.

Until late in the day Slammer was the working title, when they decided to rename it after Madge’s best song on the soundtrack.

I recall one critic at the time reviewing Who’s That Girl with just a 2 word sentence, with Who Cares?
