Twin Twins


I always find it startling to see The World Trade Center's twin towers while watching a movie. Here, particularly so, as framed by the arch in Washington Square Park. I was watching The Astronaut's Wife (1999), an intriguing mix of Rosemary's Baby, The Exorcist, and the recent Get Out. Here we see Charlize Theron as titular character Jillian Armocost at approximately one hour, thirty-three minutes in. She's fleeing from the most frightening thing you can imagine. Yes, you guessed it, Johnny Depp with a quite authentic Southern accent. Sweet tea, anyone? Perhaps a mint julep instead?
