Poor Me ?
8 July 2021
The proud public pronouncements by some attention-starved, out-of-the-limelight movie and entertainment types of having been "a victim" decades earlier, seems to be the current tried-and-true method for them to self-righteously re-enter and wallow in the now-popular sympathetic spotlight of victim-hood and self-pity these days. Every few weeks another new revelation of self-pity . . but they don't make a movie about it.

Seeing the clips of her amazing performances and accomplishments were entertaining and uplifting, but her constant theme of ethnic and female-centric poor-me self-pity (parts with accents, suicidal relationship with Brando, hate toward her long-time husband, her agent - that she kept, long ago movie moguls, etc.) should have been directed in private to her shrink, not an unsuspecting admission-paying audience.

It's ironic that with all her ego-centric, poor-me complaining of being "forced" to play only ethnic/accent and/or sexy parts, her most current chosen role is not only ethnic, but has an overly-heavy Hispanic accent, and one that she specifically requested the writers make . . . Sexier!?!
