The golden-age girls The August 18 DVD release of the 2001 ABC movie “These Old Broads” give fans of the Turner Classic Movies network a chance to see Elizabeth Taylor, Shirley MacLaine, Debbie Reynolds, and Joan Collins in action. In 40 words or less, Reynolds, Collins, and MacLaine filmed a 1960s movie called “Boy Crazy” that became a cult hit and prompts uniting them for television special that initially has them playing parts for which they are now too old. Taylor plays the old-style agent of these women. In even shorter terms, “Broads” can be thought of as the film that might have been made if Baby Jane had been a contemporary of Annette Funicello. Old rivalries and current egos predictably interfere with producing the special and results in a typical Hollywood happy ending and big closing musical number. A nice gay-themed sub-plot involving MacLaine’s son, played by Jonathon “Single Guy” Silverman, is designed to appeal to the gay fans of these screen legends. In fact, a scene in which these women who have launched the careers of countless drag queens track down and confront Silverman at a gay bar is the best in “Broads.” This plot also supports the theory that many gay men had a “Mommy Dearest” style upbringing. The bottom line is that this entertaining romp provides a rare modern chance to see catty women snipe at each other, dance with chorus boys who are one-third their age, and ultimately adopt a hos before beaus attitude.
