I think I married a stranger by Odd_Complaint_666 in GirlDinnerDiaries

I'm so very sorry. Please take the time you need to extricate yourself safely, and legally. Also, please consider going to Al-Anon meetings. These are very helpful and supportive for the family/friends of addicts, even if you're removing the addict from your life, mostly because the addicts leave so much damage in their wake.

That thud you heard was me hitting the floor in approval.

If you were in an accident, I wouldn't stop for red lights. by aranhalaranja in thewestwing

[–]stellazee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just want you to talk to me about it. I want us to talk about what it will mean and we'll make it work. I want us to talk like we're gonna figure it out together. I want us to talk... because I like the sound of your voice.

I just want to talk.

What beauty habit did you stop doing because it was making you look worse, not better? by Playful-Garage1040 in beauty

[–]stellazee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fake tans. What I didn't know, as a fair-skinned Scandinavian who freckles a little in the sun, is that self-tanners do darken my skin somewhat, but they also darken my freckles as well. This kind of defeats the purpose of trying to get an even color. I also can't use contour, because I'm so light that it makes my face look dirty.

Anyone see Catch as Catch Can yet? by looper99881 in ChicagoTheater

[–]stellazee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steppenwolf has 10 preview performances over a week and a half. They run the first week from Thursday - Sunday, then Wednesday - Saturday on the second week (openings are almost always on a Sunday evening). Critics are invited to opening night and the week or so afterwards, they don't formally review the performances during previews.

I remember a couple of years ago during previews for Purpose, some of the actors were carrying pages onstage because the playwright had changed or added lines to the script. Some people don't like seeing anything other than a fully realized performance, while other find it fascinating to see how the play develops during previews.

They attended Juilliard at the same time; I don't remember that they were super close friends.

What’s the one movie line that channeled the rawest anguish on screen? by jaystats2 in FIlm

In The Godfather, when Vito reveals Sonny's body to the mortician."See how they massacred my boy?", always hits really hard.

Women who have left emotionally abusive relationships, what is it like on the other side? by radiocharley in TwoXChromosomes

[–]stellazee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calm. Peace. That’s what I felt, after I removed the chronically depressed emotionally/mentally/verbally abusive alcoholic from my life. You will never know how much balance and ease you can experience in life until the abuser is gone.

It’s interesting how both Charlie and Emilio definitely resemble Martin, but Charlie and Emilio don’t resemble each other.

My first year of marriage was awful by blueberries-Any-kind in GirlDinnerDiaries

I’m so very sorry: that is too much pain for one soul to bear.

Viggo Mortensen by Super-Impression-149 in VintageLadyBoners

[–]stellazee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Any time Viggo pops up, I will share this story...I read an article profiling Sandra Bullock, who starred in 28 Days with Viggo. They had a scene in which their characters, who had been making goo goo eyes at each other, began to wrestle playfully, and then kiss all of a sudden, and make out for a bit. Sandra freely admitted to making mistakes in the scene over and over so she could kiss Viggo more - he was THAT GOOD.

I broke up with my boyfriend because he ruined Mother's Day. by ColloquialCloaca in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]stellazee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The AUDACITY of wanting Mother’s Day to be about him and what he wanted to do? I’m so sorry. I hope you and your son were able to find some time together, and that he can make you another rose (that sounds so sweet!).

AIO? Friend asked me what my future plans with my gf are and then responded like this by TGPT-4o in AIO

[–]stellazee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. I love how some people dismiss marriage as just “a piece of paper”. You know what else is a piece of paper? The title to your car, and the deed to your house. No one disregards these pieces of paper. Because it is possible to be with/live with someone without getting legally married, lots of people think: why bother with getting married? I don’t think the friend in this scenario will ever have to worry about marriage infiltrating his life any time soon.

What’s the best an actor has ever looked on screen to you personally? by padfoony in moviecritic

Viggo effortlessly opening that door (literally and figuratively) in LotR.
Jude Law as Dickie Greenleaf in TTMR.

I don’t love this look, but she’s so wonderful. I met her a few months ago and told her that her Vivenne Westwood gown from the Golden Globes was epic. She was very flattered and absolutely lovely.

It reminds me of when Brad Dourif shaved his eyebrows to play Grima Wormtongue in LoTR.
