Madonna Celebrates 'Desperately Seeking Susan' 40th Anniversary in NYC

On March 29, Madonna celebrated the 40th anniversary of her film 'Desperately Seeking Susan' by wearing an iconic jacket from the movie at a fashion show in New York City. This event, titled 'Mother, Daughter, Holy Spirit,' served as a fundraiser for the Trans Justice Funding Project. In an Instagram post, Madonna expressed her pride in the film and acknowledged the significance of the day, coinciding with International Day of Transgender Visibility. Directed by Susan Seidelman, the film marked Madonna's first major acting role and has become a cultural milestone, now preserved in the Library of Congress National Film Registry.

The film's celebration not only highlights its impact on pop culture but also Madonna's ongoing support for the transgender community.
