Home before Dark

 

Really cool

 

Jean Simmons gets out of the nuthouse and goes home where her husband basically gaslights her so he can drive her really mad, shut her up, keep her fortune and go on getting it off with her sister-in-law. Charming !!!

 

Gaslight.

Gothic type horror of the mind.

I did too! Many years ago. You're right, it was very depressing...I did buy the movie, though but it wasn't as good as the book (never is)...

The Hours ~ Mrs Dalloway...bipolar multi personality disorder...so sad

Yup. Virginia Woolf took the final plunge to that 'Room Of Her Own', in the sky.

 

We could start a new thread here about women poets and writers who have 'Offed' themselves, but's we won't. Too, Too depressing Dahling.

Wristcutters: A Love Story

[[br...]]

Morning CeeCee. Can't do coffee this morning. No caffeine for twenty fours hours because of a chemical stress test tomorrow. Disgusting.

 

The Caretakers.

 

Polly Bergen in the Funny Farm. Good old days with patients being wheeled around in basket wheel chairs. Guess that's where 'Basket Case' comes from.

Good luck on that test tomorrow, rabbit...we'll do coffee right after -- sound ok? 

 

Love your humor...you might be right! The term basket case had to start somewhere!....

 

The Deer Hunter  (sorry to say...but these guys lost it during the war  )
