Saw a fabulous movie last weekend

With a cast like Olympia Dukakis and Brenda Fricker, how can one go wrong?

My much better half and I don't watch many movies (unless you count those on AMC, which we love) but we actually bought a DVD a couple of weeks ago because we were intrigued about Dukakis and Fricker playing an older lesbian couple on the lam in Canada. I have to tell you, "Cloudburst" was one GREAT movie. Damn, we laughed so much throughout that film! It was even better than we hoped or expected. If you get the chance and want to see a fabulous gay film with two stellar actresses, this is one you MUST add to your film collection.

so I'll download it a little later tonight and watch it.

It got 100% at Rotten Tomatoes. I've never seen anything else get 100% at Rotten Tomatoes!

Thanks!

and had a mouth like mine. Yes, I watched it streamed on Amazon. I'll probably have to watch it again. The scenery did have me homesick, though. I'll get over it when the next foot of snow hits the area.
