June 13, 2008Two middle aged women teach us lessons in responsibility. Or lessons in having fun and being yourself. Or finding a perfect balance between the two.

August 13, 2007Umm ahem banger?????For thinly scripted fluff, The Banger Sisters sure is a lot of fun. With Goldie Hawn and Susan Sarandon as former groupies now settling into their fifties, this predictable comedy gets a zesty boost of vitality and unsentimental nostalgia.

March 22, 2009(2002 Director: Bob Dolman) Was it that 2 of the most adorable 1970's sexy vampy bright starlets co-star in this flick that made it so mmorable? Or the sheer truths presented not so "politically correctly" that make this movie a winner. I believe most everyone can see themself in one of the characters in this movie! Who are you?? Who/What have you become???
