About This Is What She's Like
A promotional film for Dexys Midnight Runners' 1985 single in which Kevin Rowland attempts to explain the indefinable qualities of woman to bandmate Billy Adams. This dialogue is intercut with scenes of Rowland singing and dancing through a desolate Wall Street and footage of the extended group performing in-studio. Directed by Jack Hazan (David Hockney: A Bigger Splash, Rude Boy).
Directed by Jack Hazan, This Is What She's Like leans on a strong ensemble — Kevin Rowland, Billy Adams, Helen O'Hara — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1985.
