Phoebe Cates and Jennifer Jason Leigh’s 40 year friendship

Time to rewatch The Anniversary Party, a film with perfect ambience.

Where's the link to this friendship and story, OP? You linked to a photo from 20 yrs ago

I prefer Jennifer Jason Leigh Taylor Young.

Cates? Meh (and she DID marry Kevin Kline, after all). But I adore Jane Adams (especially in "Little Children"), and Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Jane Adams is so funny in Hacks.

Jane Adams looks really appealing in this photo. I mean, they all do. Great post, OP.

Jane Adams is batshit crazy.

Okay, Matthew “My ass is still the same size it was in 1983” Modine.

Fuckin bastard.

More of those 3 queens from the first post:

It’s from another thread on them from years back, R2.

Some fabulous photos of Pheebers and JenJay over the years:

There is a Joyce Carol Oates biopic in Jane's future!

For me, Cates is one of those actresses whose performance style is similar to Grace Kelly.

She is all about bringing charm and warmth to the screen. Not a great actress (though she did some theater in Chicago in the late 80s and wasn’t bad), but full of charisma.

Haha. The photos of them from that day are too effing great.

Oops meant to post this link…

I too love their friendship!

There’s a rumor that Phoebe is frequently in her Manhattan store. Is that true? Does the store still exist? I’d be too shy to approach her, I’m sure that she’s a doll IRL (or at least I hope that she is).

Which one of those bitches is my mother?

“She’s wearing my goddamn Galliano.”

“Cool out, that’s Stacy’s section.”
