TV: The First Wives Club

The First Wives Club is a funny movie. It's about three women whose husbands all left them for a younger woman. These women were friends in college and their fourth friend committed suicide because her husband left her for a younger woman. So, they re-bond and decide they are going to work together to stick it to their ex-husbands. But then they realize they were thinking too small. They decide to build a crisis/help center for women and they name it after their friend Cynthia Swann Griffen. It has a lot of top stars: Diane Keaton, Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn, Maggie Smith, Phillip Bosco, Dan Hedaya, Stephen Collins, Victor Garber, Dina Waters, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Rob Reiner.

TV: Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

Another old movie I watched this week was the Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood. This is a drama about how this generation of girls bonded and helped each other through rough times and how it affected their offspring. It stars Sandra Bullock, Maggie Smith, Ellen Burstyn, Ashley Judd, James Garner, and many others. It's a very good dramatic movie.
