Romy and Michelle's high school reunion.

I haven't seen that in like maybe 6 years, but I remember it being totally fun.

It was a lot of fun. It's been a while since I've seen it. The scene when garofolo is at the counter with the cigarette is hilarious.

I also loved it when Michelle (or was it Romy) got hit by the limo in the dream sequence. Ouch!

God, this movie is hilarious!

"I forgot my top!"

So many great lines. The lesbian conversation is GOLD

How odd that the IMDb spells everything about Michelle's name with only one L.

"Wow, me too! Except for me it's like I've given birth - to this like giant baby girl - who smokes and says shit a lot..."

I end up watching it at least twice every year.

I adore this movie, but I adore Lisa Kudrow even more. She's such an under-used talent in movies. I mean, have the casting directors of America ever seen The Opposite of Sex, Happy Endings or Romy and Michelle? This girl can really act her ass off.

Glenn Dunks said...

She was also the best thing about Wonderland, even if it was essentially just an extended cameo.

no love for Mira Sorvino from anyone? I often think she got a bad hand dealt. Just as talented as many more successful people... perhaps it was that supporting actress Oscar curse?

Mira Sorvino is actually one of the few well known actors used effectively in the celebrity revolving door period of Will & Grace.

Love for Mira right hurra!

Girlfriend is a superb comedienne and was dealt a bad hand, but it's partly her fault. Why did she follow up comic gems 'Mighty Aphrodite' and 'Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion' with crapfests 'Mimic' (gag) and 'At First Sight' (barf)? I mean, didn't she read the scripts beforehand? Because they frankly sucked.

Hope she gets a second wind in her career sails one of these days, but I'm afraid a "thriller" with Robin Williams is not the answer. Mira needs to team up with an edgy independent filmmaker -- a la Spike Lee who directed her sublimely in the underrated 'Summer of Sam' -- for a dark comedy and stat.

Fingers crossed, Mira sweetie, so chop, chop!
