Rich and Famous (1981)

Anything with Hart Bochner in it has to have redeeming qualities.

We knew, though sadly not in the Biblical sense, the writer. A sister who did enjoy the writer reported "big fat" sizemeat!

Is r2's writing style lifted from somewhere?

It's either Erna/MPC or someone pretending to be them, r3.

Didn't we just have a thread on Rich and Famous? I remember WW some posts from people who said they liked it, because I also liked it.

Did the real MPC write like that, though? No the stink vocab, but the old timey writing style?

*Not the

Yes.

Yes, "knew in the Biblical sense" the stilted speech are classic MPC, but he was always a lot more careful about grammar and spelling than this new guy is. Still not convinced it's MPC. Mostly don't care either way.

I only remember the airplane toilet scene..

No, I mean the actress MPC. Did she write a famour memoir or something?

Oh! Sorry, I didn't understand that. I don't know why he chose Mrs Patrick Campbell as a name, but he always uses the names of women. I assume they are women he thinks are "fabulous."

Candy Bergen was marvelous.

Well, that's firmly in Erna's wheelhouse.

Didn't Anne Welles' train also go past this?

I've never seen Rich and Famous, but that trailer leaves me with a question. WHAT is that accent Candy is trying to achieve? Southern? She fails spectacularly.

Yes, Southern.

I liked how this scene ended.

i was a background extra!!

My parents liked it. We watched it on HBO in the 80s

"Candy" doesn't not suit Bergen. Phyllis. She's a Phyllis.

*does not suit

Matt Lattanzi was smoking hot in the early 80's,

Olivia got to hump that every night.

From Sandahl Bergman's bolt on's to Matt Lattanzi's balls.
