"Maybe you shouldn't dress like that." "This is a blouse and a skirt. I don't know what you're talking about." "You shouldn't wear that body." "You aren't too smart, are you? I like that in a man." "You can stand here with me if you want but you'll have to agree not to talk about the heat." "I'm a married woman." "Meaning what?" "Meaning I'm not looking for company." "Then you should have said, 'I'm a happily married woman.'" "Can I buy you a drink?" "I told you. I've got a husband." "I'll buy him one too." "He's out of town." "My favorite kind. We'll drink to him." "Only comes up on weekends." "I'm liking him better all the time." George

The annoying thing is, I recognize the song, and can hear it in my head, but I can't think of the title. George

No. The movie was based on a popular TV series. One of the series stars declined a role in the film. The other is in the film, but you can't see him. A major star had a prominent role in the film. The poor box-office of this film and his next one induced him to quit show business. Peter Bart's book "The Gross" covered the film's unfolding disaster in great detail. Among other facts: Warner Brothers greenlit the film largely on the strength of a star-packed cast and their appreciation of Jeremiah Chechik's work on Diabolique (1996) and were horrified when seeing what the first cut was like. The first screening took place in front of a "largely Spanish-speaking, working class" audience in Phoenix, AZ who hated the film; the studio then forced Chechik to cut many of his favorite scenes and conduct reshoots; and the final cut went from 115 to 89 minutes and was completely incoherent. The studio even refused to hold further test screenings, or to have an official premiere before the film's August 1998 release. Mel Gibson was originally considered for the male lead. Gwynneth Paltrow and Nicole Kidman turned down the female lead. George

And you was right! George

Here's an oldie: I'm gonna shake it up, gonna ball it up, I'm gonna rock it up, and ball tonight. George

Actually, wife-beating in the NFL is less common than in the general population. It gets more play, though. It's quite possible that she didn't want to lose his income. George

I recognize the song, but can't think of a movie in which it was prominent. George

It sounds as though "Last Tango in Paris" is part of this, but I'm having a bit of trouble understanding some of the plot elements. George

I was in from 1977 to 1998. I always watched TV, read the newspapers, listened to the radio, etc. Maybe that's part of the reason they booted me. :) If you got out in 1988, PC's were starting to be a big thing, but cell phones were rather bulky and expensive, and not too popular. And they certainly didn't have "apps." Culture shock or no, glad you got out! George

Indeed. Written by Neil Diamond, it was actually his biggest hit! You're up. George

:lol: George (new one shortly)

I didn't pay close enough attention. I know that a Hugo Award is for Sci-Fi. As I recall, "2001: A Space Odyssey" began and ended with music, and I sure didn't know what it was about when I saw it. The first three notes of "Also Sprach Zarathustra" are recognizable, and probably better known as the theme to 2001. If that IS the answer, I don't get the two M's reference. George

"Tommy"? George

"The Shining" "Bart! They said you was hung!" "And they was right!" George

Of course. George

It does seem very familiar, regardless of what IMDb thinks. :) George
