1996. A movie the whole world wanted to work on. A message of empowerment that had rarely been seen before. And with one of the best white pump, white dress finales in all of filmdom- John and Magnus discuss the First Wives Club and the story of three friends haunted by both divorce and death. Though their struggles are sometimes very 90s, they're also eternal. Find out which quotes are John's favorites, what upcoming trends Magnus finds that First Wives Club forecast and grapple along with us about both the great things in this movie (the big lesbian Chris, Maggie Smith doing everything, Sarah Jessica Parker going ham) and the not so great (it's a very white movie, Brenda's weight struggles =/. It's a movie with a lot of legacy, a lot to live up to, and a trailer that doesn't quite mesh with the finished product.
But it's not a movie that John would change for the world.
