About Vanity Fair: Jeanette Starion the Pet of the Year
Jeanette Dyrkjær, better known as Jeanette Starion, was a sought after nude and porn model in the 1980s. Her career took her to the United States, where she won the Million Pet of the Year Pageant and millions of dollars. But she ended up in the porn industry. The story of Jeanette Dyrkjær is the story of the girl who became famous, hit the wall and fell to the absolute rock bottom.
Directed by Peter Ringgaard, Vanity Fair: Jeanette Starion the Pet of the Year leans on a strong ensemble — Jean Afrique, Michael Kofoed Larsen, Ray Victory — 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 documentary titles of 1990.
