Wes Parmalee, Rebecca Wentworth, Mrs. Reeves were all in "Mommie Dearest"

[Snarky Oracle!]

... in 1981, just after "Who Shot JR?" was wrapped up.

Steve Forrest, Priscilla Pointer (who is 98 now), Jocelyn Brando... (Dana Andrews' brother, Amy Irving's mother, Marlon's sister).

What does this all mean??

It means their dressing rooms were obviously not allowed to contain wire hangers

Imagine if Rebecca had lived, and Parmalee/Jock got with her after Miss Ellie decided to stick with Clayton. Rebecca has a late in life baby with Jock, and they hire John Ross's former nanny

Rebecca has a baby in her sixties??

Rebecca has a baby in her sixties??

well, according to some calculations of the Dallasverse timeline she was like 8 when she had her first child with Digger, so she may simply have a near-supernatural uterus

Perhaps Miss Ellie gets pregnant at the same time, and we see Clayton/Ellie and Jock/Rebecca in birthing classes together. Upon hearing the news that shes having decuplets (10 babies at once), Miss Ellie says, "Why couldn't I have had to have a hysterectomy instead of a mastectomy?"

It means some how, some way, Joan Crawford is connected to everything, whether it's Dallas or the JFK assassination.

Mrs Reeves looks scary there

Its a long time since i saw the film on TV but it was so cheesy and such bad acting from Miss Dunaway that it was funny as she was so hammy.

I note that Miss Bette Davis always thought Faye Dunnaway very over rated as an actress

There was a thread awhile back about 80s prime time soap stars who were in horror movies before Soapland. For example, Joan Van Ark-Frogs, Ana Alicia -Halloween 2, Priscilla Pointer- Carrie. While some consider Mommie Dearest a camp comedy, others see it as a horror movie. If the latter, Priscilla may hold the record for most horror movies in Soapland including Nightmare on Elm St. 3 and Disturbed.

Barbara Please!

Mrs. Reeves looked more like Marlon Brando than her brother did at this point!
