Hmm.
You don't believe. And the thing about Mortal Thoughts is it's two women. Glenn Headley is the other woman because Glenn Headley used to be a thing. Right. And a wonderful actress. The two of them in that movie are wonderful.
Yeah, did it. Did it all. And this movie, Immortal Thoughts, I think, is it Alan Rudolph directed this movie? Yeah. From 1991? It's a Tubi classic.
Bill, I fell for it.
I rewatched it. And there's more going on. It does not ultimately work because it's structurally... It should just go chronologically and shouldn't do all the sort of jumping around in time that it does. But Demi Moore...
There's a struggle in here. I know I'm just thinking through like what, what is what worked for me and what the surprise was with respect to Demi Moore. Like there's a struggle in her, I think as an actor where she's trying to figure out like what the, what, how to modulate the, the shell that she sort of moves through movies with and,
And in a movie like Mortal Thoughts, I mean, some of what's required for that part, she's playing a woman being abused by her husband. They conspire to kill him. I think I'm getting this right. They conspire to kill him, she and Glenn Headley. And then they spend the rest of the movie trying to figure out how to get away with murder.
It's oh, whoa. You know, it's crazy. Yes.
Yeah. And that was the movie didn't work also because you don't believe them as New Jersey housewives or whatever.
I listen to you guys talk about disclosure.
I don't like that. I don't like it. I don't think she's good. It's not a good use of Demi Moore.
I mean, three straight guys talking about Disclosure is just... That was part of the gimmick. I know. It just was like... I'm like, there needs to be... But Ghost, she's really good, though. Ghost, I think, is the number one. That movie was a monster movie. Number one answer. Because that movie is not so secretly strange, right? It's not just the supernatural parts.
But I also love what she and Whoopi Goldberg get up to. Yeah, they have great scenes. I love her disbelief that the thing that she's being told is happening is happening to her. I believe her as a woman named Molly, which, you know, that's a huge, that's a big deal. Yeah. And I just think that that movie is so... It's so much about Demi Moore's character and the movie's about her.
And there's just... She's so soft in that movie. And the moments in which she has to, like, put a shield over herself, they work because you understand... The movie has given you enough of this, like, this vulnerable, you know... woman who just doesn't believe that this magical thing that is about, is it about to, that's about to happen to her is really going to happen.
Um, I just think it's a, I mean, it's strange because in 1990, who were your best actress nominees? Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, Joanne Woodward, Kathy Bates, who won and Angelica Houston, I want to say for the grifters. Yeah. I mean, it's not like she was remiss. I mean, Julia Roberts took the movie star part of the movie star nomination for those five people.
Um, I don't know.
Any one of those people could have.
Oh, wow.
I haven't seen it in a while.
I also don't think it I also it's complicated. Right. He's probably going to be one of the last actors to be in this position. Right. We're like, he'll just he'll just be nominated to maybe maybe two more times before he actually wins. Yeah.
