    That fine Asian man narrating in the beginning was Theo...awesome radio voice, and he has aged like fine wine. love this move. That first scene with Angela and her scumbag husband...also the Savannah monologue at the party when she sat at the table with the woman.... she was being sarcastic, as to how the other woman reacted to her and was verbalizing what she thought they were thinking. She was not desperate. Great acting and directing. I love that you are reciting dialog, girl I was saying it with you!!!!

      You think Savannah was being sarcastic?! I don't know....she did mess with a married man later on in the movie. But I also can see how she was just annoyed by how the women responded to her, so you're probably right lol

    Angela Bassett is beyond the master for a lot of dramatic roles❤👏🏼you should watch What’s love got to do with it (1993) she did get a nomination for academy award for best actress!! Probably one of her best roles!! She was also amazing in Notorious (2009)as well! I recommend if you react to those as well💯

    Mmmmm, the soundtrack to this movie. So good. All 4 leads did amazing. Not the "pursed" face with the 'Disclaimer.' I'm done, lol. Not pre-emptively forewarning of impending Block Barrage, if they try it. Savannah's read at the beginning still kills me. Bernadine is better than me cuz after EVERYTHING that she'd done for him & been through... he wouldn't have made it to the party. It would have been the reenactment from the limo scene in WLGTDI, lol. So good.
