It was one of the great catfights in cinema history with Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn, Oscar-winning actresses of a certain age, locked in a duel to the death…well, not quite since [possible spoiler] they’re both already dead. The pitch black 1992 comedy Death Becomes Her from inventive director Robert Zemeckis has developed a rabid following over the years thanks to its groundbreaking visual effects, a plot that touches on eternal themes such as greed, vanity, sex, immortality, life and death, and the icing-on-the-cake: its deliriously entertaining dialogue (“Now a warning??”). Now you can see it as never before — on crystal clear Blu-ray.
The Death Becomes Her Collector’s Edition Blu-ray will be available April 26 from Scream Factory™!

After getting sucked all together she says, “I’m a girl!”

“This is life’s ultimate cruelty. It offers us a taste of youth and vitality, and then it makes us witness our own decay.”

Goldie owns the rights to the story of the late Ann Calvelo, the roller derby queen who died a few years ago. I’ll be glad when she develops that story. Ol’ Ann was a scrapper in her day. If you remember Shirley Hardman you have to remember Ann Calvelo, even though they skated in two different leagues. Ann was always rivals with Joanie Weston, Carol “peanuts” Meyer and such.

So many to choose from but one of my favs: you’re a fraud Hellen! You’re a walking lie and I can see right through you.

“You cruel, vicious, loathsome bitch!” I used to quote that all the time at my brother when we were kids and fighting. lol
I also love “Do you remember where you parked the car?!?”

You’re a fraud. A walking lie and I can see right through you.
You’re a tragic, boozy, flaccid, pathetic clown.

“Do you remember where you parked the car?” When they fall apart falling down the stairs.
It’s funny in group therapy where she keeps talking about “Madeline Ashton”.
