Gilda Radner!

Great to see a pre SNL Gilda Radner in the film. From looking at her bio and credited work, this looks like the first feature film she appeared in. Was she in Second City before going to NY? If not, this may be her first professionally credited work.

I wish I was a headlight on a northbound train. I'd shine my light through the cool Colorado rain.

It was nice to see her when she was young.

It was cool being able to recognize her even though we don't get to see her too clearly. I guess she just stands out no matter what.

i am watching this film now and just saw her. thats why i popped on IMDB. love her dialogue (very possibly improvised!?) but im not sure.

Gildas character: "..But now I, well, I really love the clarinet and I can't even remember why I wanted the flute in the first place" LOL. oh Gilda

"Other than that...lifes a bowl of Palmolive and I'm soaking in it"

I thought that was Gilda!

Saying something "would of" happened makes no sense. Would HAVE. Would'VE. NOT "would of".

She was a "Nichiren Shoshu Member" and I just added her line to The Last Detail Quotes page.

It's Cute, How You Think I'm Listening
