  1. Puppies and chickies and bunnies, oh my! The fuzziness!

     

    Be glad that Lily doesn't live in Florida. Doggies have been known to mysteriously vanish -- snatched and eaten by alligators.

  2. Oh, merci, SueSue, but H.P. Lovecraft and Poe also offer their thanks, because they're the two writers I very often childishly emulate, ha! It's also easy to write about creepiness (alien crab-puppies and tree branches, et. al.) when one is living in Florida, lol. So much weirdness, so little time!

     

    You're such a terrific cook; I salivate whenever you post your menus. Can you share the Easter feast?

     

    I keep waiting for Rudy to whisper all his secret recipes in my ear.

  3. I'm also remembering that rarely shown Twilight Zone episode, "Spur of the Moment", when rich girl Diana Hyland, rebelling against her conservative father's warnings, ups and marries her free-spirited boyfriend, with frightening consequences...

  4. Woody's in a neurotic class all by himself, building up female egos only to tear them down once they become strong and therefore a threat to his "male"-ness. I'm also thinking of Jill Clayburgh in AN UNMARRIED WOMAN (and you can't get any more Mazursky bridge-and-tunnel than Erica's shrink Tanya, lol) with Alan Bates' artist Saul really just another version of her selfish, immature husband. I'd like to believe the institution of marriage can actually be liberating for a man and a woman, but then, I've never taken the plunge...

  5. >Women should have better choices than either Carl or Ben. Ben wasn't a replacement for Carl. From my POV it was the other way around; Carl was a replacement for Ben. But given a few days after the final scene, she comes to the conclusion that she didn't love either man.>

     

     

     

    Ha!! I think I agree with you. Ben would probably start treating Elaine like an intellectual inferior shortly after their marriage. I see a Kramer vs. Kramer scenario here, lol.

  6. > I think they end up exactly like their parents, wondering how they got to that point. That last shot is so full of uncertainty and the tinge of fear and regret, but it'sonly just crystallizing that they have no idea what they just did, out of a whim of the moment.>

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    When Elaine starts to run out of the church with Ben, her mother hisses: "It's too late!", to which Elaine replies: "Not for me!" but then there's the ambiguity of that ending (probably just to keep everything "edgy" and "ironic" for the "hip" late '60's?) Even cynical, bitter Mrs. Robinson started out as an art major and then went downhill from there, lol.
