Synopsis

Amber (Madonna) is a spoiled rich bitch who's far from impressed when her husband Tony (Bruce Greenwood) takes her on holiday on a luxury yacht. While Amber and her high-society friends enjoy their luxury, they take pleasure in humiliating the crew members. Especially Guiseppe (Adriano Giannini) has a difficult time dealing with Amber's demands. But then one day, when Guiseppe takes Amber on a boat trip, their engine fails and they get shipwrecked on a deserted island. Instantly the roles are reversed, when Amber all of a sudden finds herself dependent on the goodwill of Guiseppe to provide her with food. Knowing he's in charge now, it's payback time for Guiseppe and he makes Amber to his servant, even if he has to use violence. Until they fall in love...

The Making of Madonna’s First Album Cover

Carin Goldberg — the art director behind Madonna’s debut album cover — spoke to the Cut about her first experience with the then-unknown pop star.
