Forget The Godfather or Casablanca, and fuck that selfish Scarlett O'Hara. If you recognize the title of this post you're obviously familiar with one of the greatest scenes in cinematic history, Beverly Sutphin's obscenity filled phony phone call terrorizing Dottie Hinkle in John Waters' masterpiece (and my favorite film of all time) Serial Mom. I don't know why this film was overlooked by the academy because Kathleen Turner saying "pussy willows" still makes my ears pucker, and she and Mink Stole should have scored Best Actress nominations from this scene alone! While Kathleen went on to Broadway acclaim and the role of Chandler's father on Friends, Mink went on to even greater stardom in But I'm a Cheerleader, Eating Out and Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds, which explains why she was performing her one woman cabaret act last night at The Cutting Room in NYC.
