@CB: And then at the end of the movie (in your head), it can turn out that although the calls seemed to be coming in from varied and far flung locales, they were actually all you…calling from inside the house.
I think I saw this when it was called “Single White Female”.
Jennifer Jason Leigh played the psycho. Who is Leighton Meester? Is she the progeny of Buster Keester?
@ GeodeJane:
She’s the brunette from “Gossip Girl,” whose cinematic ouvre includes “Country Strong” and the now-playing “Monte Carlo.”
And seriously? The whole “girl best friend who has serious boundary issues (with major lesbians undertones)” genre has totally gone downhill since the ladylovers ermerged from the closets…
@ DieterTheMasseur: I was looking for movies on Moviefone and came across Monte Carlo. Naturally I thought it was some sort of intense thriller until I saw the lame movie poster thumbnail. To make a long story short, I wound up being the only male over the age of ten in the theater. I’ll probably just buy them both on Blue Ray.

Somehow I think that one hour-and-forty-five-minute reaction shot of you watching “Monte Carlo” might possibly have become my favorite movie of the year.

@ Blix:
You’re playing with fire. Sideboobs? Underboobs? Why don’t you guys just start talking about Israel and Palestine again.
Middle Eastern women often have amazing racks.

You who else didn’t care for sideboobs and underboobs?

I’d like to think things changed because the culture changed. Attractive women stopped being cast as competitors ( even natural enemies) in their friendships and the awareness that women were hot for each other became marketable. Marketable being the key word since I am not talking about art house or cult favorites. It really did not catch on in the mainstream until the 1990′s which seems a bit bizarre. Although “Brokeback Mountain” was made in 2005. Still the male buddy film has had a much stronger showing over the years. I tried to attach a clip from “Bound” which starred Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly but it was disabled. It was made in 1996.
@ GeodeJane:
Oh, I know it’s probably a good thing(TM), but I’m still going to miss the whole “Persona”/”Single White Female”/”Notes On A Scandal” genre at the movies…Oh, and the episode of “Gilligan’s Island” where Ginger and Mary Ann traded places…

@ GeodeJane:
I saw Bound with a friend’s Mom. When he expressed dismay she replied, “It was only pretend lesbianism”.
I hate to disappoint, but Kate Clinton is, as a rule, disappointingly bland. In general for that sort of humor I recommend either Judy Gold, who once riffed at a benefit I was at with, “Y’know, I don’t know what it is. Once something comes into my head, it is GOING to come out of my mouth. Last week I was hosting a NARAL benefit, and I walked out on stage, and I don’t know what happened, I opened my mouth, and the first words out were ‘Yesterday I was cleaning the toilet while my husband fucked me in the ass, and I looked over my shoulder and said to him Honey, I worry that I’m not entirely satisfying you.’”
Or Lea Delaria, who famously described Hilary Clinton as “Finally — a First Lady you could fuck!” She hasn’t opined yet on Michelle Obama, but presumably would be even more effusive.
