Welcome to you all!
FEAITO, Mom called to tell me about FOR PETE'S SAKE. She unfortunately wasn't crazy about it, saying that Barbra "spoke too fast";
Michael Sarrazin's hair "made him look like a werewolf"; Molly Picon was
"shorter than I remembered"; and the only time she laughed was when Streisand posed as a hooker. Her final thoughts: "I wouldn't see it again, but FUNNY GIRL, I could see forever." The Momster has spoken, LOL.
ARK -- How wonderful you are here! Mom is looking forward to MARNIE tonight; I don't think she's ever seen it. When I told her Sean Connery is in it, she goes: "He didn't play James Bond anymore?" I just ignored her.
WENDY -- Ha!! I only WISH I had Edgar's slow burn. Usually I just shoot my mouth off to her and say something inappropriate, and then regret it later. However, I'm taking lessons on how to deal with difficult people from Bette Davis (or should I say, Claude Rains) in NOW, VOYAGER.
ELLIOT -- Oh, my, it's great to see you! I sometimes think I'm in my own noir movie when I'm with my mother. It's that helpless feeling of dread and anxiety I experience whenever she opens her mouth...
JUDITH -- How are you? I don't believe we've met before, thanks for dropping by! About your mom and "4:15 p.m." -- my mother is obsessed with time, and she's very precise about it. Last weekend she called to tell me she was coming over at 12 noon. She arrived at 12:03 and apologized for being late.
MOIRA -- Hi! I'll bet Barbra's Katie from THE WAY WE WERE would have read Veblen. She thinks Streisand's hair looks "messy" in that movie. I told her that Robert Redford didn't seem to care. Fill us in on your mom's grammar-ethic-social behavior corrections!
CHRIS -- Lovely you arrived! Oh that's so funny with THAT WORD!! I would have liked to see that scenario with your father, ha! One time my mother told me she couldn't sleep so she randomly put on HBO and was greeted with "G-String Divas". She actually found it fascinating. "How do they get their bodies around those POLES??"
BIRDY -- Nice to meet you! Hope you won't be "far, far away" on those Banks. My mom is just a wee bit hard of hearing and probably will need a hearing aid down the road. She's in her own denial about all this. So your mother never admits to being wrong?
