Ivana Trump uttered the tagline of the 90s revenge comedy, The First Wives Club: "Don't get mad. Get everything." And, back in 1996, audiences did. A trio of megastars - Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn, Diane Keaton - joined forces for this tale of fidelity, friendship and lip fillers. The movie was a hit and helped squash the notion that female stars can't boost the box office without a male lead. But now, decades later, does the movie feel as old as its ideas? Do our three divas make sweet music together or is it all just a song and dance? And how long does it take the NYC postal service to deliver a suicide note? The Old Roommates sign a prenup and revisit the blockbuster through their middle-aged lenses. Listen to this.Old Roommates can be reached via email at oldroommatespod@gmail.com.
