My daughter is in theater and enjoys artsy films. She has introduced me to many indie movies that I might not have ever known about. Most of the time, I appreciate her talent for picking fantastic flicks. Since, Chris, my husband, is playing in an out-of-state racquet ball tournament this weekend, Kate and I vegged out in front of the television and watched "Running With Scissors".
During the movie, I kept repeating, "this is beyond creative. How could anyone think these things up?" Then Kate gave me a quick synopsis to shut me up. The movie is based on a real life story..."and you know Mom, truth is stranger than fiction".
Nominated for Golden Globe and others. The author, Augusten Burroughs , should be given an award for surviving his childhood.
I won't go into any more detail about the movie, I dont' want to give anything away. But, since I am a real estate professional there was a line in the movie that made me laugh out loud.
One of the characters proudly showed off a room attached to his office, his
"MASTERBATORIUM"
After that was said, I was totally in shock. Not because I am prude, but because I thought to myself,
"How would you sell the place and put that in the MLS remarks".
OK, just now for schnitz and giggles I googled "the word"...good grief, it is real!! It shows up on urbandictionary.com. I am not supplying a link.
I guess I really am a prude.
