I never understood the scene where, on Babs and Amy Irving's wedding night, instead of having sex they have a pillow fight and everyone standing outside the bedroom door just assumes that they're having sex. Okay, that part I understood, but I never understood why they poured red wine on the bedsheets. Now I understand and I'm no better for it.
I also like how, in order to prove to Mandy Patinkin that she's actually a woman, Babs has to show him her boobs. LOL.
this entry was semi-traumatic, as it brought back the first time i saw this film on tv when i was young. it stayed with me through the years as a constant: what the fuck? they made this a movie? starring barbara streisand?
also i had seen the princess bride before it and couldn't get over mandy patinkin in a serious role.
My parents bought me the soundtrack album, too. When I visit them at Christmas I'm going to interrogate them about this particular issue. WHY YENTL. WHY NOT SOMETHING NICE.
we're still fine

because, of course, watching "the piano" over 80 times at the tender young age of what...11...wasn't scarring at all. i think i only watched it thrice, and the sound of a wooden finger tapping on a countertop still reminds me of the first sex scene i ever saw in a movie.
