October 1st, 2018 Peggy Sue Passed Away?

Time to blow the dust off those 78s?-)

Peggy Sue Gerron, inspiration for Buddy Holly song, dies aged 78

The silver queen?

"A 43-year-old mother and housewife who's facing divorce is thrust back in time when she attends her high-school reunion.

Given the chance to change the course of her life, she finds herself making many of the same choices."

"In 2008 [10 years ago from this 2018 'Year of the Dog'], Nicholas Cage settled a libel suit against Kathleen Turner for, falsely claiming in her memoir, "send yourself roses", that he was arrested twice and had stolen a dog."

"In the original script, Rosalie, the woman in the wheelchair at Peggy Sue's high school reunion, was a gymnast who was crippled in an accident.

In the original script, Peggy Sue tried to take advantage of her knowledge of the future.

She invented pantyhose, encouraged people to invest in Xerox, and tried to prevent Rosalie from hurting herself."

"Kathleen Turner usually feels the role she's playing intensely.

In this movie she had terrible nightmares about her dead grandmother calling her on the phone, similar to what Peggy Sue feels in the phone scene."
