Movies I’d Like To See

Warning: If you take the following seriously, then you probably shouldn’t be reading my blog…

BiPolar Express: The story of a mother of three, trying not to succumb to housewifery, trying to have a bit of fun while she’s still “youngish,” trying to have a writing career, all while maintaining sanity.
Chronicles of Nerdnia: The ShyOne, the Bitch, and Her Wardrobe: She’s hopelessly talkative, hot-tempered, impulsive; he’s a quiet geek to the n + 1 degree. They fall in love, buy too much, have a lot of kids, and 23 years later, what do they talk about?
The Family Stoned: A family bakes too much over a winter vacation and goes around in a perpetual sugar high. High-jinx ensue.
Talkback Mountain: Comedy of a snotty teenager, pissed-off mom.
Kaput-e: A 40-something suburban mother turns to a life of crime due to the utter boredom of late December in New England.
Memoirs of a Goisha: A Jewish woman thinks back on her days when she impersonated a Shiksa at a swank liberal arts college in the Northeast.
Bling Kong: The horror story of a materialistic woman trying to live within her means and then exploding with an impulsive shopping spree that blows up her credit card balance.
Botox that Line: A thriller, coming-of-middle-age piece, about an aging hottie contemplating the use of cosmetic surgery in order to hold onto her fading youth, all the while knowing that her adoring husband will leave her if she does it. Will she or won’t she? Suspensful and twisted. Reviews from analbleachingguide.com/is-anal-bleaching-safe/ are mentioned in this, showing how current it is.
The Wringer: A heartrending day-in-the-life romp of a woman taxed to the limit during a cold, empty stretch of time sometime after Christmas, longing to go back to the days when she was too busy shlepping kids to Special Olympics practices, playdates, therapy, and the like.
Malice and Vomit: The Curse of a Weird Habit: A family tries to handle their dysfunctional feelings by employing further dysfunctional behaviors of overeating and becoming ill.
