The scene in She Devil where she eats the pastries? Had me on the floor. Sylvia Miles was hilarious in it, too, as Meryl's mom.

Yep !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

even Rosanne (bless her heart ) was good in that. Meryl was as well, but it was SO out of character for her!!!!!!!!

I love that they're married! it's weird, too, cause MB's birthday is like, a couple days before mine. oops, accidental astrology reference..

Well, she had to do something to redeem herself after starring in that flick "Lipstick" with Margaux Hemingway.

Love...In the Rinse Cycle.

I love Meryl's scene where she does the laundry. I loved Death Becomes Her, too!

I have a workprint copy of it and it's VERY different from the one they released. It has an entire sub-plot with Bruce Willis and Tracey Ullman and a wildly different ending!

Well, isn't this weird? I just found a sort of Lindsey connection to Spaulding Gray.

We know that Lindsey is a fan of Laurie's and I found this under Spaulding's filmography.

Death Becomes Her is one of my faves. And it has the trinity of water! (Meryl - Cancer, Goldie-Scorpio, Bruce - Pisces) I never tire of that movie. plus, random Isabella Rossellini!
I like Devil, too, though i think Meryl isn't very good in those type of roles... I can't believe you have a weird version of death becomes her! lucky!

Isabella Rossellini is STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNING. I don't think a more perfect woman could be created.

The version I have (it's not the best quality, but it's alright) has Tracey Ullman and Willis having an affair. She convinces him to steal the potion and they high-tail it to Europe, leaving Meryl and Goldie to fend for themselves. About 70 years later, they all run into each other by accident and Tracey and Willis look phenomenal, while Goldie and Meryl look like utter ****.

I haven't watched it in quite awhile, but that's how I remember it. I'm not sure if Tracey and Willis took the potion or not.

That's because they cut Ullman out completely.

I guess that test audiences hated the ending, so they re-shot it and had Meryl and Goldie fall down the church steps and shatter into pieces. Since that ending didn't gel with the Ullman subplot, they cut her out.

Kubrick did the same thing to Jennifer Jason Leigh and Harvey Keitel in Eyes Wide Shut.

I loooooove Tracey Ullman, one of the best comic actresses in history. Rent "A Dirty Shame" when it comes out on DVD.

Whoa! I can't believe they were in eyes wide shut! It seems like that movie could've benefited from their innate weirdness.
Who else is in a Dirty Shame? Nevermind, i'll look it up. I usually only like movies with beautiful people, but... Yes, Tracy is veeery talented.

I've no clue, but I can't wait for the commentary.

The commentaries for Desperate Living and Cecil B Demented were uproarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
