Get "Possessed" by Movies
If you keep meaning to join in on the Hit Me With Your Best Shot fun, but haven't yet made the plunge do it with the last episode of the first half of season 3 (we'll take a few weeks off and start again before wrapping season 3). We'll be discussing Possessed (1947) with Joan Crawford. She made another film by the same name in the 30s so extra credit points if you wanna do both (otherwise unrelated) films.
If looks could kill many of Joan Crawford's co-stars would have died of unnatural causes. But just in case she also carries a gun.
P.S. Since I'm late with Edward Scissorhands, I'll still accept submissions so join in the fun! I'll wrap Edward on Monday and Joan on Wednesday and then we'll break until late June.
P.P.S. Any suggestions for the series are welcome. I do read them all and try to cover films from multiple genres and decades.

Hit me with your best shot: WHITE OLEANDER!!!
Boogie Nights!
oooOooH!! Fantastic choice Joey... I'd like to retract my previous suggestion and second Joey's choice haha.
Boogie Nights!!!
I agree with Boogie Nights and I'll add Manhattan.
Agree with both of those, but will keep suggesting Performance as a great finale. It's pure GOLD and I think it's everything Bonnie and Clyde...isn't.
What about a NSFW HMWYBS? My suggestion is a movie from John Cameron Mitchell, Hedwig or Shortbus could be very interesting choices.
Repulsion, please.
