5-20 Recap Double Indemnity, Dammit
All Of Me - Kyra Sedgwick stars as a woman with a dual personality -- a cold, careerist side, and a docile, obedient-wife side. Her husband wants to medicate her to be docile all the time. This plot outrages Alex Richmond. So glad the show is canceled! Plus, Ally celebrates her thirty-second year on earth, and wears really bad outfits.
