let me join a chorus of approval for DEFENDING YOUR LIFE. i love this movie, too... not so much on the acting of meryl streep (i think she played herself in this film -- an all-capable mother with no accents) but of a slightly facetious way of approximating what happens when we all (believers and non-believers) face judgement day?
love that part where meryl is on best terms with her "prosecutors" while albert brooks had the sternest ones (lee grant and rip torn, i think). joseph in manila (was it streisand's "something's coming" version that was the music when albert brooks met his demise in the film?) > i love it too! best scene? streep eating spaghetti without a trace of > guilt because now she'll never grow fat! > wallyK, still alive hence growing fat
