Ep 245: "Postcards From the Edge" Revisited

Release Date: 05/28/2024

Description: “It twirrrrrrled up!” Back in 1990, Mike Nichols’ “Postcards from the Edge” also twirled up some big box office. Meryl Streep and Shirley Maclaine laughed, cried, and sang their way to critical and audience acclaim, thanks Carrie Fisher’s acerbic script, loosely based on Fisher’s life and best-selling novel. But these days, how much sympathy can we truly “twirl up” for these privileged, fictious, and moneyed movie stars? Do we still buy Ms. Meryl as a recovering pill-popping drug addict? Would we have fallen for Dennis Quaid’s pickup lines? The Old Roommates grab their middle-aged ammo (don’t worry, they’re blanks) and give this LA story a rewatch through their middle-aged lens.
