i loved him too! Such a sense of drama & timing!

Seriously. I have a very good ear and it’s so obvious to me that she changed her voice for the last debate. You could hear her catching herself and pulling it down every time her tone started to naturally climb when she was angry or agitated. Somebody in a focus group must’ve written ‘shrill’. SMFH

This is dumb, but you’re funny and you have that name—-I’m Midwestern American agnostic who just enjoys modest dress. I’m not hiding anything gross(I’m even a size 4-6) it’s just what I prefer—— so these clothes are making me salivate! Gorgeous! Covered up does not mean matronly or ugly. I wish I had more options like…

The CIA must be close to inventing a new crack by now. Maybe a crack that gives you HIV or something?

I know! I’m even enjoying the lyrics...wtf?

ITA. If Natalie can mimic Jackie’s voice, her accent & affect, the casting is fine. If she was cast simply for being a brunette who Aronofsky loves, then fuck that. I’d prefer an unknown.

I read this years ago, but she said she thankfully discovered gaffer’s tape during filming. BUT there are a few scenes where it’s painful to watch her untaped little boobies swinging all over. ‘Painful’ because I’m a boob owner, not an enthusiast.

I know this point is rather on-the-nose with the title being Far From Heaven, but that movie skewers our idealizations of everything we covet: marriage and family, luxurious suburban home, ‘If I just had a maid’, submissive beautiful wife, handsome successful husband—-and of course biggest of all, the nostalgia around…

I love the end of Far From Heaven, Julianne Moore with that look as she watches Raymond’s train pull away. Lordy, that’s a weeper!

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve watched Far From Heaven a shameful number of times, I gotta branch out.

“P.S. Send money. God bless!”

Moisturizing inside by drinking water is important too. The people I know who only drink sodas all day look haggard and ashy.

No kidding! They are the furthest thing from pro-life in their policies. Once you’re born, you’re a moocher.

You wrote “Southern”, but the map shows us Hoosiers for what we are—-Northernmost Southern state. I grew up saying Coke for everything, and thought only hicks called it pop. If I had known Coke was the Southern term, I’d have dropped it in kindergarten. Indiana is so Southern, but we do our best hoping no one notices.

It’s weird the author mentions The King and I, because Lou Diamond Phillips played the King of Siam in a Broadway revival, with Donna Murphy as Anna, in the late 1990’s.

Exactly. Just like in a hospital, a restaurant assumes all blood is horribly infected with everything, because even if it’s pure, it’s so disgusting. You clean & bleach like you’re nuking it from space; It’s the only way to be sure.

Yeah, and he told them the only way to survive long term was to moderate their platform of dog whistles; they ran him out of town on a rail.
