Movie 206/1001 ~ Fatal Attraction

1987's Fatal Attraction stars Michael Douglas and Glenn Close. Douglas has an affair with Close that he thinks ends after the weekend, but Close demands that she not be ignored and claims to be pregnant. I actually felt some sympathy for Close's character, even though she clearly is twelve types of crazy, Douglas's unsympathetic attitude to her plight certainly isn't helping matters. I enjoyed this movie.

Fun Fact: The original ending was changed because test audiences didn't like it, so the cast was called back for three weeks to film a different one. Result: second highest grossing film of the year and six academy award nominations.
