Exactly! I wanted more nude Garfunkel. He was a cutie. I'd rather see him nude than Nicholson the whole film.
I thought the character Cindy was supposed to be a male BarbraStreisand drag impersonator.
It’s not even the worst wig Jodie wore in a movie. Check out her wig in The Accused.
Excellent analysis. Good points.
Exactly! I just came on here to post the same thing. There is NO ONE who only has a pair of contact lenses without having a pair of back-up glasses. You take the contacts out at night, get into bed, and have your glasses by the bedside table. Why he didn't just say that on the stand is baffling.
I've always felt that she saw him die of a heart attack in front of her. He woke up back in the present lying on the floor as if he died in her hotel room.
Otherwise he would have woken up in his own bed at the hotel.
But then why not forget a no-payout and just kill the Stepford Wife off so that Holbrook and Oscar Goldman can continue their own love affair? Why leave any loose ends? Her lover Brad will be framed for her murder and no one will believe him. Also, she would have insisted that they both get their life insurance policies up to date, so he'd get a hefty payout with her death too.
And they live happily ever after. And no one could imagine it even if they were a mentalist. That would be an even more twisty ending!!!
I just watched it for the first time and knew nothing of it. About twenty minutes in, I was thinking "Is this really as awful as I'm seeing it?" Went here, and started reading the reviews. It was uncomfortably unfunny at times, and some of the jokes you could see coming (so slowly) that when the expected 'funny' part was revealed it just seemed boring and cliche. I made it through to the end, but wasn't even sure how it ended. Did Stockard get left by her family when the whole truth came out? That was my take on it. Anyway, it was really bad IMO and it had nothing to do with advanced negative input.
Except the Democrats who were racists (called Dixiecrats) realized the Democratic Party was against racism and segregation. They then turned to the Republican Party who agreed with the Dixiecrats and their racism, and now the Republicans control the South with their racist rhetoric.
Yes, he was. He was a small man with classic "Short Man Syndrome" with Narcissistic Personality Disorder on top of that. And you can tell by LH's storylines that he was sadistic too. But oh how he laughed, that overindulgent laugh. I guess that was supposed to cover his major failings as a human being.
If you ever saw the movie "Ghost Story" with Wasson, it was actually Bill Maher as the stunt double falling out the window showing his own one inch penis. Wasson's was too large and they needed Maher's tiny dick to lighten the mood to get past the censors.
We all know that Pa fathered Albert by a saloon pro above the saloon in whatever town that was. Ma got her revenge by having Grace who was fathered by Uncle Chris. The funny thing was that while they laughed over things while in bed and chomped on popcorn with their mouths open, Pa had no clue about Ma's deceit while she knew all about his. That's why she giggled so much in bed with Pa. It's believed that Ma also conceived Mary with the town rich boy but he didn't want her so she had to find some dumb bloke who thought that babies were made in 6 months. Caroline was so shady!!!
It was a small Texas town, and they were local football heroes. They could get away with anything. It was a much different time back then.
Thy name is Cybill.
But she wasn't just an ordinary black girl. Her part was of a totally jaded poor black girl who was wise beyond her years, always trying to embarrass Trixie and get under her skin "I almost threw her out of a window in Little Rock"?? "Remember that time you were almost thrown in jail Miss Trixie?" Just hilarious and delivered with such deadpan.
I agree, the B/W is a huge "character" in this movie. In the same way that The Last Picture Show was. I can't imagine feeling the same watching it in color.
Funnily enough, I would take Jack Lemmon off of the list! Even Brando. I thought Ryan was excellent in this, and I'm not much of a fan of his. Even Redford wasn't much in The Sting. Ryan totally conveyed the frustration of a would-be pop with his maybe/maybe not precocious child. All of the actors were wonderful in PM. I just watched it again on Prime.
I'm an 80s kid, and having a 20 dollar bill would have been excessive, considering the small town I grew up in. She's lucky no one noticed her with that much money, since she would have been mugged in my town.
It is a FICTIONAL story. Why aren't you crying about how totally unrealistic it is that Verna can turn herself into a raven and blow up houses too? Get real. You're too silly to even comment further on.
The whole plan went pretty much as planned, except they wanted to kill Rollie so that there were no 'loose ends'. Kill Rollie, DeFranco gets away, and they win. It was always the plan to kill Rollie.
