I just had to laugh when I saw Meg Tilly doing Agnes of God and Jennifer Tilly who did Bound (quite a little difference there)  hee hee.  Actually I haven't seen Meg Tilly in another else for a while, have you?  I think Jennifer Tilly is so hilarious (I would love to look like her for at least one week - ahhhhh the fun I would have...lol)  oh anyway, she is very good at playing the roles that she plays. 

What about the Arquette siblings, wasn't Roseanna Arquette mostly in the 80s?  I think all her brothers and sisters went into showbusiness of some sort after her. I was going to say Melissa Gilbert but she was more the 70s when she first started out and wasn't her sister (Darlene in Roseanne) in the 80s, both children starting out.  Oh God, I'm now at the age where I'm getting my decades all mixed up...how sad.  hee hee.

it never occured to me that i noted down such opposite movie for the tilly sisters and now that i noticed that ,that is funny LOL  :+>

 according to imdb,Meg tilly that some last credits was a tv movie called journey(1995);that was some time back and anything that was listed/credit on her top 5 most recent credits i have never seen or heard of : http://imdb.com/name/nm0000672/

About sara gilbert, i loved her acting in roseanne and a few movies(poison ivy), it never occured to me that she was melissa sister(11 years apart)and i did liked melissa in her little house in the prairie yrs.(1974-1984);Little house crossed through the 70s and 80's and as far as i can remember they did so many reruns/repeats of little house that its easy to confuse the the time frame of the show,then in 1983 they made 3 movies based on the show ( Little House: Look Back to Yesterday)and a spin off in1984(Little House: Bless All the Dear Children).The only thing with melissa,i only liked her during my preteen crossing to early early teens when i was still into those wholesome movies,feel good, everyone is good children/family shows.Melissa never played varied roles when she grew up as if she was typecasted.Always a good girl lead girl,with easy endings.I do not know, i just did not like her movies after little house and by that time u kind of outgrow little house.I watched a lot of scary movies in the 80s.Just like in your horror and zombie group.And in those days in the 80s horror sequels(howling,freddy ,jason-friday the 13th,halloween,poltergeist) is what a lot of teens watched among a bunch of other movies.

and about rosaeanna arquette, david(ready to rumble,never die alone) and patricia(medium,stigmata) being the more well known of the siblings;i like some of their movies and shows{david and patricia)

 Richmond Arquette, Alexis Arquette, David Arquette and Patricia Arquette.
