Positively charming. Like a modern day Splash (I LOVED the one with Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah back in the 80's)
ReplyDeleteI totally forgot about that one! Daryl was always so weird looking. Is she still alive?
DeleteI think she is. I'm sure we would have heard about it if she passed.
DeleteThere are celebs who I think are dead and they're not, and also the ones who died and I forgot LOL Like, I've recently seen an article on Britanny Murphy, I totally forgot she died years ago...
DeleteLooks good!
ReplyDeleteDo you speak French, Debs?
DeleteYup, looks like a Splash remake. Could be fun though :)
ReplyDeleteIt's French, soooo.....

ReplyDeleteI've always wondered how they reproduced, having, you know, no visible modest spots...
