Her son in the film is probably my favourite character in a film, ever. It's such an anecdotal film - so many little moments I remember out of it. I quote it regularly.

I've probably watched it a dozen times but it <A HREF="http://mynewplaidpants.blogspot.com/2007/08/i-like-thinking-about-red-dress.html" REL="nofollow">destroys me emotionally</A> every single time, so I always need to steel myself up beforehand.
