Recently Bossy watched one of the Netflix movies that stream for free straight to her computer except Bossy doesn’t have to watch it on her computer because she can watch it through her X-Box on the television screen and Bossy doesn’t understand even one word of what she just wrote.
The movie was Broken English, which was released in 2007 and stars the impossibly cute Parker Posey:
In the movie, Parker Posey wears a pair of sandals that make her walk weird:
But we don’t feel sorry for Parker Posey and her weird walk, because on a hotel management salary, she can afford a New York City apartment with an actual living room and an actual bedroom and an actual hallway, which in Hollywood movie terms is called Special Effects.
In the movie, Parker Posey has a couple of friends:
For instance, Drea de Matteo plays a drug-addled informant. On The Sopranos. Here she is not that. Broken English also stars Gena Rowlands as Parker Posey’s mom:
Later in the movie, Parker Posey stands next to a few different guys. Like him in a lobby:
And him in a movie theater:
And Gwen Stefani’s husband in an elevator:
And then Parker Posey goes out to lunch with her mom and her mom says, “You know what I heard about your liver? You should not have any alcohol to drink two days a week.”
And then who knows about the rest of the movie, because Bossy was too busy trying to find proof of the liver thing on the internet.
Broken English gets five stars, where five equals the amount of days per week Bossy will now be drinking. Rent today!

Hilarious review. I added it to my queue. Looks like it’s not available to stream anymore. Darn.
I saw this a few months ago on Netflix instant too! And I loved it. That French accent . . . it kinda killed me.
Figures, I cancelled netflix after they raised their prices. Redbox most likely will not have it
I can’t make this leap…..I’m still in ranch mode.
Olivia thinks she remembers her grandmother once referring to a “French” ancestor and so Olivia is laying claim to THAT gene so she can drink 7 days a week.
Vive les buveurs de vin!
There’s Olivia’s French gene coming out . . .
I missed both this post and this movie. Thanks, Bossy Archives!
Gena Rowlands and Julia Roberts: Something to Talk About. I forget the male actor’s names but I know they are big. The women stole the show! And Hope Floats. Sigh.
You had me with “streaming.” Just cancelled my Netflix DVD rental and popped the last one in the mailbox.
This made me laugh (except I don’t like Parker Posey so much, or think she’s cute. At ALL). Also, you look so happy in the photos on PW’s blog!
Must agree that you looked super in OK. Musta been all those cowboy forearms. Sign of a man’s man big forearms.First thing I look at. MM’s come in right behind OO’s.
Bossy is losing Kidsmom.
Ummm… Streaming, yes. But not FREE.
