Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999) with special guest Josh Gorski
"You're talking about the richest family in a small town. It's front page news when one of them takes a shit!"
On today's episode, join me and my guest Josh Gorski, from Video Dropbox, as we dive into the wild and kooky world of Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999). This dark comedy is a delicious mix of morbid and acerbic, and it has stayed a cult classic for many years. This film is also celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, so I thought why not dive into it. This movie was written by Lona Williams, and was directed by Michael Patrick Jann.
This movie stars Kirsten Dunst, Allison Janey, Ellen Barkin, Kirstie Alley, and a whole host of other actors like Brittany Murphy and Amy Adams (in her feature film debut)
Intro/Outro Music: "Phantom Fun" by Jonathan Boyle
