Robert Altman's "3 Women" made me realize just how many kind, worthy people there are out there who happen to fall under the radar, just because they are a little bit odd or, more likely, because they don't know how "to play the game" (because they'd never been taught; Millie did not have parents, and Millie's were way out there, probably not very competent...) and so they are rendered ineligible and disposable because of it. It's a very, very sad thing. And there's not really anything that can be done about it. It's just part of life.

The TV movie Go Ask Alice was so terrifying that it kept me from ever trying drugs. To this day, I'm probably one of the few people of my generation who's never even tried pot (waiting for legalization, though, which may be soon).

I'd say a combination of every meaningful movie I have ever watched, rather than one specific movie.

Well, in that case, she'd no doubt come out a step or two ahead of Mr. and Mrs. Potato |

They were still in a trance from their last ritual though and hadn't fully recovered. They ate too much of Minnie's chocolate mouse. She put a little too much cream de cocoa in it! Besides, Mr.and Mrs. Potato didn't really fit in with those Satanists, anyway? |

They attempted to convert them, but Mrs. Potato kept on buying Minnie Christian kitchen prayers to hang up next to the fridge and Mr. Potato was spending too much time in the loo reading jokes for the john, that they couldn't bear it any longer. Pinky was supposed to provide Rosemary's baby with a sibling. I don't know if you've ever seen "Secret Ceremony" or not, Toasted Cheese. But Mia's character is part neurotic ding a ling/part Peter Pan. (And she has very long hair in this movie, it should be noted.) Her Rosemary is nuclear physicist by comparison to this dim bulb. Anyway, my friend and I used to have her team up with Spacek's Pinky and star in some crazy buddy-buddy road movie. We got the tag line already picked out. "They had no idea where they were going..." And the artwork would be the two of them both sitting in a wheelchair (Mia can be sitting in Sissy's lap), going down a steep hill about 90 miles an hour squealing their dumb heads off. |

Nice how 3 Women can now be correlated with Motel Hell, Rosemary's Baby and an original idea. You could have Ida and Minnie behind pushing the chair. Ooooh! Yes, the two older ladies could push the two girls towards the top of a hill and then just push them right over! Right before they start flying down the hill, Minnie would hand each girl a ramekin of chocolate mousse. I like picturing Minnie and Ida as chums/neighbors. (Though once in a while they would have to get on each other's nerves) Hey, can you imagine a sitcom starring Minnie and Ida? Ida would have taken the wrong road map with her and ended up at the front door of the Dakota. Upon the sad death of Laura Louise, Minnie's best friend, she welcomes Ida into the brownstone. They find out just how much they have in common, including gin rummy, and it's Minnie and Ida against anybody who gives them a dirty look! When Pinky comes to visit her Aunt Minnie, Minnie tells her "now you keep your hands off my niece! She was not intended to become a pork roast, no matter your culinary talents!" |

Minnie would have eventually gotten tired of Mrs.Potato's kitchen prayer stitchworkings hanging around the place. They all turned black and shrivelled like the box on the ark did in Raiders. Mrs. Potato was un-phased and kept replacing them. She would keep on telling Minne that they are for the kitchen. lol. "They're for the kitchen!" One day, Ida walks into the kitchen and says "And you're ready for a gas oven! I think 4 hours at 375 degrees would do you right nicely! Now, in you go, girl!" Later, Ida and Minnie have a very pleasant dinner with some beer and potato salad that Ida has brought over! |

Laura Louise did Ida's head in. Her death was no accident. Laura Louise threatened to kill Ida, preservatives or not. Well, that was just the wrong thing to say to Ida. Toasted Cheese, are you saying that Laura Louise killed Ida, or that Ida killed LL? It wasn't clear to me which you meant. LL seemed not so sharp to get one over on super sharp and vigilant Ida. But maybe that's just me. |

The Blair Witch Project made me terrified to go in the woods at night.
