This week, we dive into our pfirst Pfeiffer and it\u2019s also pforgotten Pfeiffer. To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday<\/i> arrived in 1996, coasting on a triple threat of Oscar buzz: a popular stage play, adapted by the Picket Fences<\/i> team of David E. Kelley and Michael Pressman, and starring the beloved Michelle Pfeiffer as its ghostly object of affection.<\/p>\n

Critics quickly dismissed the film as maudlin (with oddball comparisons to Ghost<\/i>) and audiences forgot about it even faster. This week, The Mixed Reviews<\/i>\u2019 cohost Gavin Mevius joins us to rediscover the film – in all of its icky sexual mores and misrepresentation of how karaoke works. We also discover Freddie Prinze\u2019s Jr.\u2019s late career switch, luxuriate in the trash of William Shakespeare\u2019s Romeo + Juliet, and unpack Pfeiffer\u2019s stalled Oscar trajectory.<\/p>\n
