Fabulous Four ****

Written by women, directed by women, only 90 minutes long (minus credits)! I love it when women of a certain age get their own movie, where the men are, for the most part, accessories. This film meets the Bechdel test 100%: women talking to each other about something besides men. Lifelong friendship is explored. And the move is hysterical; I didn’t know Susan Sarandon or Sissy Spacek had it in them; I knew Bette Midler did.
