   Desperately Seeking Susan, based on a good screenplay by a new writer named Leora Barish, is a terrifically genial New York City farce in which the lives of two very different young women become tangled in an Orlon web of lies, half-truths and cross purposes.

   Is 'Desperately Seeking Susan' worth watching?

   • "Desperately Seeking Susan" (1985) is a quirky drama revolving around mistaken identity in an unlikely story. It's entertaining enough and also works as a window into mid-80's New York City. How much a viewer will appreciate it depends on how smitten (or not smitten) they are with Arquette. She's winsome, for sure, but I can take her or leave her.
