Pity you chose to miss a fine review for a misuse of Yiddish.

I'm not seeing good reviews, and.... - late 05:51:02 03/15/03 (0)
Hi,
bit of trivia.... Lainie Kazan, who routinely plays a large ethnic Mama in movies like My Favorite Year (and one of my favorite movies) and in TV shows like Will and grace......also did a nude for Playboy back in the 70's . Now she was zaftig; and damn close to a kncokout despite being zaftig. Had to get that out of the system.... Like you, I am old and cranky. Having seen more than a couple reviews in the same spirit covering that movie; sloppiness in language was enough to kill my interest. I know that a description of a woman is not as important to you; as it is to me. But it is emblematic of an impending death to civilisation when a guy can't properly describe a dame :)
And yes, I adore lame jokes, life is a lame joke; might as well enjoy it.
