Happy Birthday, Mr. Christian

"The lost Prince-produced short film / music video."

1984 21m Dir. Brian Thomson

About this movie

We find our three heroines at a reading of the will for Mr. Christian, who ran a school for girls. Christian decided that the girls needed humbling, and so he left them nothing. They must go out and get jobs immediately. Produced by Prince, the short film was created as a promotional tool for the trio, Apollonia 6. The film, which was titled either “Happy Birthday, Mr. Christian” or “Apollonia 6: the Movie,” was shot but never given a final edit – only a leaked version exists, missing sound effects, bumper music for the shot transitions, and is clearly a rough cut. The Apollonia 6 film was directed by Brian Thomson, an Aussie who did the production design for the original productions of The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the original stage show.
