Does Tessa ever do anything? Or does she just sit and look judgemental? #BelowDeckMed

This is why we keep track!

It tells its story with beautiful restraint. And the last scene is perfect. It could be a short film on its own.

Overflow crowd (11 people total) at my little local film club tonight to see BIG NIGHT, courtesy of Hoopla. Remarkably, only my husband and I had seen it before (multiple times, for us). Everyone liked it!

Here's a gift link to the NYTimes review of GIRLFRIENDS, by Judy Klemsrud (not normally a book reviewer, but a feature writer). You'll see that she puts the film in context with some other films at the time.

Wow, thanks for doing that much work! I haven't seen a couple of the films you mentioned (it was a time when, if you didn't catch something at the theater, you probably didn't get a second chance to see it). Will try to see at least some of them.

Also, what did you think of Richard Gere?

What did you think of it? Does it seem dated?

Elisa Serling Davis @elisa515.bsky.social · 23h

No, it was terrifying (and I’d already read the book beforehand).

It’s been difficult to find for at least the last decade. Have been considering a rewatch.

At least one show a week is recorded ahead of time. This one was logical since it’s a three-day school weekend.

I think all of us would have loved a live one with these two! #RHOP #WWHL

Pretty sure it was pre-recorded. No polls either.

There’s a reason things are cheaper in OK. 😂

We don’t know what her financial circumstances are/were.

Did you see last night’s #TaskHBO? The sustained violence is almost unbearable, even though it’s magnificent.

Kody is that dude who would mansplain ice to a polar bear. The consummate narcissistic know-it-all. Absolutely exhausting to hear him for 30 seconds on TV. How did ANYONE stay married to him for 30 years? #SisterWives

I would ❤️ this 100 times if I could.

Yes (assuming he’s still a member).

It’s looking really bad for them! I do not delight in saying that. My Alma mater employs her right now, which was already kind of embarrassing.

Guidice fraud was a)for higher $$$, b) federal (Osefos are state), c)against the banking system.

I do think Wendy and Eddie will end up with more substantial non-prison consequences. Convicted felons usually can’t get teaching jobs, be licensed in the cannabis business, or maintain law licenses.

I'm looking forward to the Bravo Docket lawyers to cover the Wendy case, but I'm guessing (IANAL!) that, even if there's prison time, it won't be for long. If they're guilty, there are other restrictions that would go along with a conviction that have more important implications for them. #RHOP

It's hilarious the way Kody explains that purchasing the new house is contingent on their selling the current house--as though that's a novel concept.

HIs adoration is conditional on her continuing acceptance that he's the best man who has ever lived.

(Secondarily, I think he's petrified that she'll leave him, too, and leave him alone and seen as a failure.) #SisterWives

It’s a recreation of actual events, mostly with the actual people. Worth seeing to protect yourself and your loved ones. 📽️ #FilmSky

Because it just got added to Kanopy, #NowWatching STARRYING JERRY AS HIMSELF. It's a "pseudodocumentary" (like COMPUTER CHESS? or closer to an actual documentary?). 📽️ #FilmSky

She should fire her agents, then.
