057 - The First Wives Club

057 - The First Wives Club

Author: PS I Hate This Movie November 11, 2020 Duration: 1:34:06
 
We take a realistic look into the unrealistic world of romantic comedies that we LOVE to hate.
 
This Week -
 
The First Wives Club (1996)
Starring: Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler, and Diane Keaton 
 
A wonderful movie where Victor Garber’s character absolutely should have been arrested and imprisoned. 
 
We ask the tough questions, this week: 
What reasonable measures can we take to get Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler, and Diane Keaton to be our aunts? 
Why did they keep acting like 45 years old was near death? 
Who’s making The First Wives Fight Club? 
 
 
Listen to the podcast - then watch the movie or vice versa! 
But stay home, please. What do you need to go out for? Maybe groceries? 
Then go back home. Stay home. No need to go out. Pretend you're in an underground fallout shelter. It's therapeutic (and just safe, right now). 
 
HEIGL Meter!!
A scale for movies. 5 Heigls = worst movie you've ever seen in your life, most painful. 1 Heigl = not bad. 
 
Sarah:  90 Heigls (because it’s the 90s) 
James: 3  Heigls

Ever find yourself yelling at the screen during a supposedly charming meet-cute, or groaning at a grand gesture that would be a restraining order in real life? You're not alone. Comedians Sarah Hunt and James Pietragallo are right there with you in PS I Hate This Movie. Each episode, they grab a beloved romantic comedy by its rose-tinted glasses and give it a thorough, hilarious, and deeply realistic shake-down. This isn't just about pointing out plot holes-though there are plenty-it's about asking why we're so drawn to these films even as we recognize their absurdities. You'll hear them dissect the questionable life choices, the outdated tropes, and the sheer logistics of love stories that defy all reason, all while celebrating the strange comfort of the genre. Their chemistry turns each deep dive into a conversation that feels like hanging out with your most opinionated friends. For anyone who has ever had a passionately conflicted relationship with a rom-com, this podcast offers the perfect blend of critique and nostalgia, making you laugh at the nonsense while maybe, secretly, still loving it a little.
