185. She-Devil with H. Alan Scott aka Sadie Pines

"Mary Fisher lived in a palace by the sea." We watched She-Devil (1989) with the hilarious H. Alan Scott aka Sadie Pines and… is that a gummy bear in your hair?  The masses may have been sleeping on this camp classic for the past 35 years but, as usual, the gays know whats up. She-Devil was Meryl Streep's first real entry into comedy and her portrayal of the Jackie Collins-esque Mary Fisher is pure camp. Roseanne Barr, fresh off the first season of her hit sitcom, is the titular She-Devil but time and attitudes have changed and her character Ruth Patchett is clearly the real hero. And was it just us, or was nerdy Ed Begley Jr. secretly hot?  Something about that tall drink of water in a barely there pink bath towel definitely unlocked a core memory in our tiny queer brains. Throw in legendary Linda Hunt, and cameos from Robin Leech, Deborah Rush and the one and only Sally Jessy Raphael and you've got yourself a bonafide gay classic.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna
