Hell hath no fury like Mrs. Daigle trying to find out who took the penmanship medal in the campy killer kid classic "The Bad Seed." Eileen Heckart, Nancy Kelly, and Patty McCormack reprise their roles from the original Broadway production, earning all of three of them Oscar nominations, and deservedly so. (Even if Nancy Kelly does take scenery chewing to a new dimension.) Heckart is a quintessential BSA, turning two scenes and 10 minutes of screen time into an opera of grief, rage, regret and drunken despair, and leaving us wanting more. We also have much to say this week about aging, 42 year old men, our impending birthdays, and the best supporting podcast in our lives this week.
