And she lived (still lives?) in an amazing house by Frank Lloyd Wright's son so her taste in architecture is superb, as is the quality of her reviews!
how dare you say she's feisty! you sexist pig!
If anyone has seen her "Because I Said So", you know this new atrocity is not a surprise. I am still insulted by the awfulness that her character was in BISS.
Looks like DK needs pocket cash every now and again...
Is this for real? We are talking about the Stranger here.
Hey, where did my comment go?
No shit, right?
she's the oldest woman i want to fuck. i have always wanted to fuck her, even before puberty. she has to slum - so what? if someone gave her something good to act in, she's be on it like a hobo on a ham sandwich.
When I heard they were remaking "The Women" I knew it could never amount to much, because let's face it, divorce is common and cheating more common. Then I saw the trailer and wondered why it wasn't a 30 minute weekly sitcom on MYQ2 instead of a movie.
If only there could be a guest review from Rosalind Russell...
I wish the animals were not scared of Diane Keaton.
The play and the '30s film are bitchy and awesome: Luce Booth (or is it Booth Luce? I always get that switched around) is definitely making fun of these emptiness and vapidity of the characters (not that they aren't witty and glamorous as all get out -- Norma Shearer, a young Joan Crawford, Rosalind Russell, etc.). And Rosalind Russell gave Paulette Godard a permanent scar because the latter bit the former during their fight scene. I saw a local theater production of this about a year about and it was pretty fun too.
It's like Meg Ryan has a personal grudge against my favorite '30s films ... Do yourself a favor and skip You've Got Mail or this new version of the The Women ... rent the Lubistch (The Shop Around the Corner, with Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullivan) or Cukor (the 30s The Women)versions instead.
Having met Diane, I call "fake".
She's not that erudite.
I'm sorry, but them's the facts, jacks.
I've only seen trailers but I am appalled that Clair Booth Luce's estate would allow this film of what may be one of the finest movies (and plays) ever written. The film version was perfect just as it was and this remake looks like crap. 'The Women' is a period work and should only remain there. I will wait till DVD or better yet freebie on my ROKU. Hollywood can't come up with original material anymore so it trashed a perfect classic for a buck or two.
Oh come on! this is so fake!!!
Better yet, EW has a pic of Annette Bening labeled as Diane Keaton in their (not very warm) review:
