LEGGY BEAUTIES APPRECIATION HOUR IS NOW -- ROMY & MICHELLE EDITION.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on one of the most quotable, fashionable, and iconic dynamic duos of the last century, Michele Weinberger (played by Lisa Kudrow) and Romy White (Mira Sorvino) in the ditzy buddy comedy, "Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion" (1997), directed by David Mirkin.
Resolution at 1842x2763 & 1600x2345.

I’m still fascinated what made them applaud just by seeing them.” And the laughs kept coming —especially when Romy admitted that she hates throwing up in public, and Michele replied, "Me too.""
