Lately I’ve been getting Toni Colette a lot. but I don’t care who plays me, as long as Sam Shepard is in my film, and Robert Duvall. And the only other actress I can think of right now is Tilda Swinton, I’d like her as one of my sisters, or a best friend.

oh yes, catherine keener! she’s great!

i would love it if kathy bates played me, but i think bette midler would do a better job… she is more bubbly.

Catherine Keener is such a perfect choice for you.

I’d like Maggie Gyllenhaal to play me, only she’s going to have to work at not coming off as so sweet, because I’m sort of a crabby-ass bitch. It’ll stretch her acting skills.

no Im not. but im not one for subtlety either and if they made a movie about my life it would have to be an extravagant, over the top joke with some great visuals and lots of undead people.

thanks for the earlier advice by the way. My current not-boyfriend looks me in the eyes and says “tell me everything” about once a week, but he’s still scared shitless of me. Its the most destructive relationship. but your comment helped me realize that he’s not worthy no matter how perversely interested he is in the way my brain works. I’ve thought this for a while, but I’m addicted to him (currently trying to kick the habit.)

also: I think dita von teeze plays sister wolf would make for some kind of cult movie goes block buster. I’d even buy the DVD.

catherine keener is beautiful too.

I would choose Penelope Cruz to play me because she is beautiful and really do I want to imagine down ?? She could pull off my range of moods. The entire film would be about a woman who talks to herself in a mirror and although she has a life outside of it you only see it played out by her monologues. She would have to smoke a lot and cry and speak in a California accent. In the end she will smash the mirror to signify her triumph over her self containment and escape from constant self-reflection.

Parker Posey will have to get some crazy weave or wig, that is true. But, I think she’d be willing to make a huge sacrifice for the part, especially once she learns how much Ecstacy I took in the early 90’s.

For me, it would have to be a muppet monster, I think. maybe an orange or rust colored one. Shaggy.

But give it eyelashes.

If I am FORCED to have a human thrust upon my on-screen persona…gillian anderson, but have her gain 30 pounds, wear no makeup and have no hairstylist.

Faux Fuchsia – Who else could it be??!? Now I’m really jealous.

Hammie – Okay, want me to get either a job or a book deal, xoxo

Constance – Wow. I may need your autograph.

Cybill – Hahahahahahaha! I’m up for it, painful or not.

I’d be played by Divine (before the deadness obviously) wearing feathers and sequins. The whole movie would take place on a lime green chesterfield couch and there would be a great deal of cake being eaten.
Watching the movie will be a painful feat of endurance for the viewer.
