Angela Lansbury is Monique's mother.

Sean Connery is Monique's mother.... Wait.... I take that back... Sean Connery is Monique's boyfriend. He might be 300 years old, but he's still a stud.

Fun movie. A rainy day favorite. The book was completely different. Quite a bit more dramatic.

She also loses a ton of weight because her new love (a real estate agent?) is a health food nut who introduces her to well prepared, natural foods.

Apparently it went through a ton of re-editing before its release. The trailer shows a fight physical fight between midler and Parker at the department store that didn’t make into the Final Cut of the movie.
Jon Stewart’s part as a love interest for Goldie was completely cut out and Heather locklear and James naughton were almost completely cut out. I think there was supposed to be a snarky comment one of them made about Kathie Lee after she interviewed them that got cut out as well.

The four actresses who played their younger selves at the beginning of the film were uncanny. It sounds like Bette, Goldie, Diane and Stockard dubbed their voices but the physical resemblance was spot on.
