Two of my favorite actresses, and I somehow missed this movie entirely. I'm glad to have stumbled over this, so I can add it to my list. Muriel's Wedding was the first time I saw Toni Collette, and that movie moved me so deeply, for her, even while cringing at her, you are hurting with and for her, also. Drew, I've grown up with Drew, and I admit, I am totally, madly in love with Drew, in a totally non-creepy way. I was brought up in a home where homosexuality was not an option. My family would forgive me murdering someone, but there was no reality in which one of their kids COULD be gay, or Bi. I have repressed certain parts of myself so deeply, it's taken 37 years to face them, and try to deal with them. I just wanted to make my parents proud, but nothing I've done, trying to be the version of me they wanted, and always failing I'm 49 and I feel like I've wasted my whole life. Perfect grades, winning major trophies in Debate which is how I got a full scholarship for college, getting a job from the moment I was 16, buying my own car, but I wasn't religious enough to make them feel totally secure that I believe and think exactly as they do. I choose not to even speak about my spirituality, and even that is not enough. My niece came out when she turned 18, and her mother and I have stood by her, fiercely, my heart breaking for how I know my brothers talk about the LGBT+ community and hearing about my brother's comments when I wasn't around, cut me to the quick on my niece's behalf. It was then I started becoming honest with myself, and who I really am. I was also able to finally face being raped when I was 14 up to age 16, by a prominent member of our church, and I couldn't see a path where I could tell anyone what happened, and end up NOT being blamed. It was a situation I couldn't escape, and it has made me feel ugly and unlovable, and disgusting, to the point I still hate mirrors. I buried those horrible memories of this 6'4, 300 lb football player-- of waking up and seeing him in the doorway, staring at me, and unable to stop what I knew was coming. I buried it, and I buried my real feelings, despite having many gay best friends even living in a state with such a small homosexual population. So that ridiculous amount of overshare comes from the day I saw Drew Barrymore, and realized that I REALLY found myself sexually attracted to a beautiful girl, my own age for the first time. Looking forward to the movie.

Not sure if any1 else realises this but! I 'think' Speilberg stole the title of this film from the other film Toni appeared in many years previous! ie; Muriels Wedding. When you see the final scene in that film where they are both leaving Porpoise Spit? you will see the sign at the side of the road on the edge of town which clearly says, 'missing you already'! Nice 1 Steven ;))

Hmmmmmmmmm, I started watching this clip and was actually beginning to enjoy it. That is until that last question about 'what 'women' are about etc etc. Now, I'm a normal, everyday fella and I think women have equal rights with men and all that stuff. There simply is NO NEED to bring into the convo, feminism! I mean, I am the very 1st to say right here and now, that I am prepared to do whatever it takes, to give a woman whatever she 'needs/ wants. BUT!! (and its a very big but too). I will NEVER,EVER give a woman the 'remote-control'! THAT is just asking wayyyyy too much. I mean lets face it, if us fella's give THAT up? is life really worth living? (rofl). Tc peeps. Ps. Toni Coillette is sooooooooooooooooooo . Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ;)) (pps. Kinda reminds me of someone actually!). sighs heavily! ((;
