Now & Then (1995)

Date watched: 26 October 2019

Guys, I want to talk about this movie

I just don’t know where to start because this movie means so much to me, and I love it dearly, and when I think about my childhood, I think about this movie.

It means a lot to me because I distinctly remember watching it (over and over) with my best friend, Lisa, and so whenever I watch this movie I think of her.  The VHS copy that we used to rent from the video store had this music video in front of the movie (WHY? I DON’T KNOW):

Yes that’s Ant & Dec or as they were in 1995, PJ & Duncan and no, I DON’T KNOW WHY.

I just remember it playing in front of this movie because we USED TO DANCE TO IT.

Look, it’s kind of a banger, right?  In front of Spiceworld they had the Spice Girls song “Stop” which we also used to dance to, because we were 12 and that’s just what you did.  We were powerless to resist.

So this movie, like, in the great pantheon of movies that I love, of which there are many, this is right up there.  One day I might try to rank them in order of favourites (Titanic is number 1, spoiler alert) but I would genuinely struggle with that because they’re all just “my favourite”.

So let’s talk about the greatest movie of all time featuring this banger line-up of LADIES:

And featuring the likes of Bonnie Hunt, Hank Azaria, Cloris Leachman, Devon Sawa, Janeane Garofalo, Brendan Fraser and various others, it is a CAVALCADE OF STARS.

Now, this movie, which I love so much, has 28% on Rotten Tomatoes.  Twenty-eight percent.  What fucking percentage of that is old white dudes WHO DON’T FUCKING GET IT?

And the audience score is 83%.  What does that fucking tell you, right?  THEY KNOW NOTHING.  NOTHING.

Should I even try to break down the plot or should I just keep gushing about how much I love this movie?

Okay, basic plot - they are four girls, they are best friends who make a pact to be there for each other whenever they need each other.  They grow up, move away, get married but when Rita Wilson is about to have a baby, they all come back together again.

IT’S BEAUTIFUL.

It’s a coming of age story but for girls and as a girl, I APPRECIATE THAT.

Also, the soundtrack is a FUCKING BANGER.  If you like 70s pop music - and I do - you will fucking love this soundtrack.  It is full of bops.

This movie also features a cameo by a super hot and scruffy Brendan Fraser and guys, there is always room for Brendan Fraser.

Plus you’ve got peak Christina Ricci and like, I’m straight, but I think there’s a part of me that’s always been a little bit in love with Christina Ricci.  Let’s talk about her character in this movie, Roberta.

Now, Roberta is a tomboy with three brothers, she tapes down her boobs, she wears masculine clothing and she’s not afraid to get in a fight.  I’m not stereotyping here, but… she’s gay, right?  Like… yeah?

My only quibble, if I have one, is that Rosie O’Donnell plays the grown up version of Christina Ricci because they look literally nothing alike, but also… I can’t unsee Rosie O’Donnell as a lesbian, so… in my head canon, Roberta is a lesbian.

But they specifically mention in the movie that she has a boyfriend, and she is the only one who has a moment with a boy, when she kisses Devon Sawa (get it girl).

I’m going to watch Casper soon, don’t worry, I’m all over the Christina Ricci movies.

Anyway, my point is this - you cowards.  If this was a 2019 movie, she’d be a lesbian.  But it was made in the 90s, so she’s not.

It is my only criticism.  She could still be a lesbian and kiss Devon Sawa.  Just saying.

Maybe she’s bi?  Who knows, honestly.  She’s a doctor in the movie, I’m sure there was college experimentation.

In any event, Roberta is my favourite character in this movie because she’s the best.

Also can we talk about how Christina Ricci is also the best?  I looked up her age and she’s almost 40 and I cannot believe it.  I have grown up with both her and Kirsten Dunst, like… it’s weird as fuck.

Anyway, do yourselves a favour and watch this movie.  It is the fucking bomb and the critics, once again, do not know what the fuck they are talking about because this is a 10/10 banger.

Directed and written by women as well, guys.  In 1995.  A classic.
