Pfeiffer Pfridays

This Pfriday, we kick off our miniseries Michelle: The Scrapbook Years, where we're covering Michelle's first three films in consecutive order. That means this week we're talking about La Pfeiffer's debut film role: Suzie Q in The Hollywood Knights. We dive into the familiar faces (Michelle, Fran Drescher, Tony Danza), the odd similarities this movies has to other much more remembered titles of the time and, of course, what kicked off Michelle's film career and the possible paths it might have had.

Good morning, Pfeiffer Pfans! Do you feel like every day is an open door? Perhaps you feel like you can't stop the beat? Well, Velma Von Tussle is here to make it clear that it's not and you won't. Yes, the pfabulous Pfeiffer boys (along with special guest Jose Martinez) are headed to Baltimore to discuss Michelle's delightfully villainous Miss Baltimore Crabs. We also cover the star studded casting of this film, the adaptation from stage to screen and, of course, Allison Janney (devil child, devil child).

Artist. Mother. Most glamorous prisoner in the yard. These are just a few of the words you could use to describe the wickedly manipulative Ingrid Magnussen, as played by La Pfeiffer in her glorious SAG-nominated turn in White Oleander. 2002 was an incredibly stacked year for female performances and we get into it: the exquisite turns of the four ladies in this film (including Michelle in one of her most psychologically twisted roles), the odd trajectory across voting bodies for Best Supporting Actress nominees that season and the "Oscar narrative" track that can provide momentum to certain actors.

All aboard the murder train! Michael and Jerry are here to take on you on the wild ride that is Murder on the Orient Express, the star-studded Agatha Christie adaptation that pays more attention to Kenneth Branagh's mustache than most of its Oscar-winning/nominated cast. Michelle glides her way through this caper, snatching wigs in every sense of the phrase, and we cover how murder mysteries have evolved on film, compare the 2017 version to its equally star packed 1974 version and ask plenty of exasperated whys (it is a mystery after all)!

Jerry and Michael stay in Pfrance this Pfriday for Michelle's re-teaming with Stephen Frears, Chéri. Hoped for Oscar returns, the fact that Kathy Bates manages to delight in everything and Rupert Friend's nudity all add to the conversation as we tell "The Tale of Le F*ckboi." #BeautifulGowns.
