- TriviaDuring the "Rock Cock" sequence, Susan Sarandon and Goldie Hawn were shown Polaroids of the crew who had volunteered to be photographed especially for that sequence. The surprise on Sarandon's face is quite genuine when she saw who the photographs were of, and recognized the faces.

Featured review
A great afternoon romp
I just saw this movie, and all I can say is that many of the critics don't `get it'-this is a fun romp, especially because of the efforts of the extremely gifted actors in it. Sarandon as an "uptight" matron is a hoot. Hawn giggles a bit, but shows us a force of nature as well. And Geoffrey Rush's character is a wondrous "mess."
Basically, a best friends story, with a few twists and turns. Yes, I'd love to see more of a back story on how Vinnie becomes Lavinia and more of the Bangers' `history,' but for an afternoon of memories and joy, this is it.
I really appreciate the central question Bob Dolman seems to be asking.what happened to us? Kids, for those of us living before AIDS changed the sexual revolution and the greed of the '80s turned most of us into yuppies, we were `free-er.' Gee, it's a chick flick. The theatre was filled with women when I saw it, and they were all laughing at the jokes and sighing at common experiences. The Harry Plummer character? Just think about his reaction to Suzette's caring for her friend's child. The scene shows her `real' character, not just the `floozy.'
If you want great meaning and angst, rent a Bergman DVD; for a fun romp, SEE THIS MOVIE!
