Smithereens

Ravioli. I was going to have a brownie with some coffee during intermission, but I was too full from the ravioli. Maybe next time.

Smithereens, 1982, directed by Susan Seidelman, starring Susan Berman, Brad Rijn and Richard Hell. This was Seidelman's first feature film and it was the film she made just before Desperately Seeking Susan. 

Listening to an interview with Seidelman offers an exercise in naïveté. She leaves her suburban Philadelphia home to make movies in New York. What do you do after you make your first feature? Oh, there's the Cannes Palme d'Or competition, let's try that... All the things you wouldn't do if you knew better.
