One thing I noticed was if you pay close attention to the timeline, you can see why Gladys is so hellbent on making her daughter the pageant winner. All the girls are 17, and Gladys herself competed and won the Mount Rose title *17 years ago*. But she never went any further - she never went to state. The reason why is that she was knocked up and had to drop out. She got married and had Becky, and all these years she's been thinking about how she was robbed of her victory. So now Becky's going to be her chance for a vicarious redo, and THIS time she's going to go all the way to the Nationals.
So happy you made this video because Drop Dead Gorgeous is in my top 5 favorite movies. I find it to be hilarious and super smart. The casting and script is prefect.
I immediately subscribed and will be seeing all your videos. I can tell we like similar things. I’m a fan.
If you like that movie, then you're the most smartest.
Im so glad that Drop Dead Gorgeous is getting the recognition it deserves. I still have this on DVD
Great video and analysis! I always use to watch this movie when I was younger with my sister and I never really understood the underlying themes. I liked hearing your analysis of the movie from the colors of their clothes to their respective talents, and learning about the other movie 'Smile'

Denise Richards doesn't have an accent in this movie because she couldn't do one. Period. Full stop.
