First thing’s first: Linda Hunt. She’s 4’9”, she’s got an Oscar, and she was in frigging Dune. She’s in this too, and maybe that should be enough for any of us.
But if you need more…Meryl Streep in her prime.
The first half hour is basically John Waters’ Polyester with a bigger budget and without Divine. But then things really get going. Basically, a woman is cheated on by her husband, in every sense of that phrase, and then she repays him by taking his life apart.
If you watched First Wives Club and wished that there had been more arson, this one’s for you. And where else are you going to see Rosanne Barr and Ed Begley Jr as a married couple?
Roseanne Barr is the next best thing to Divine. Also, I never watch a movie and feel satiated by the amount of arson therein.
little trip down memory lane :D
