(susan seidelman) rosanna arquette very much represents the good girl, housewife. she's mrs. glass. the madonna character represents her opposite: somebody who does things totally on her own terms, is sexually active, has a devil-may-care attitude. it's about one woman who's desperately seeking the other, but she's really desperately seeking herself. and the relationship between those two women, and the tension between those two women, i think are the core of the whole story. (susan seidelman) rosanna arquette, in imitating susan, in trying to be an imperfect version of susan, by the end of the movie is a better version of herself. we tried obvious devices, like amnesia, mistaken identity borrowed from the old screwball comedies, in order to get at some bigger identity truths. beautiful. $10, all right? hollywood is a pretty conservative institution, and i think that, that there are films that explore alternatives to these romantic situations, but i don't really think they come out of hollywood because i think hollywood appeals to this safety net. i think there's a lot of issues tha
