I've been watching a lot of movies lately where there is an evil step mother. Rachel Getting Married, Amusement Park (or whatever it's called (don't go)), and The Uninvited (The Underrated). You see, there's a big demographic out there who relate to movies where dad leaves for a younger woman and the children vilify the new mother. Debra Winger is the good or whatever real mother to Anne Hathaway's gamin. I love that word! Or should it be gaminette. Gamin is in RAMONES lyrics. I love Anne in the movie. And hooray for Debra's comeback. In these movies you'll hear a lot of "You're not my mother!" or "You're not my real mother!" no harsher words were e're uttered.
Joe and Bryce - NEA grant or not, it was featured in ArtForum where it was described as "brilliant". Maybe $2,500 was set aside in that NEA grant to give a bribe to the ArtForum reviewer.
Bryce: I loved Hathaway in Rachel also, but I think Winger was the biz-atch birth mother from hell and that Anna Deavere Smith's (speaking of NEA) stepmother character was the more sympathetic one, no?

JunkThief is your typical Gallic Jew boy born on the Great Plains, went to Gotham and Ouagadougou and Kathmandu before settling in San Francisco's Mission District. Now he searches the dark alleys of that city to find good conversation, Weimar culture and (but of course) the perfect door knob.

and you can't tell me what to do!
LOL and ouch.
Gary - And to think that guy was supposedly the subject of "You Oughta Know".
Hmm. I've never been anti-NEA in my life, but I don't know about receiving arts grants to shoot re-creations of a sitcom scene.
I know what I like.

Brilliant!?
Hmm. Like I said, "I know what I like."

WHAT THA HELL?!
Full House was shitty show and so was that scene. And to have to sit through all those re-enactments is a true BORE! LOL!
I'd rather see a BOW vid clip or Junk TV thanks.
WAT - Can I use you as a reference for my NEA grant application?
Joe - Okay, so much for ArtForum's recommendations. However, if you start knocking Anna Deavere Smith, I will take issue with you.
