Upon its theatrical release in the summer of 1999, Drop Dead Gorgeousfailed to make much of an impact. Audiences didn’t seem to know what to make of the mockumentary following a small-town beauty pageant, in which the contestants are mysteriously killed or maimed one by one. But it has since become a cult classic, as discerning audiences have come to embrace the film’s cast of unsung character actors and up-and-coming big-screen stars, its ruthless commentary on the beauty pageant industry, and especially its insanely quotable, jet-black dark comedy script. Now, as the film nears its 25th anniversary, the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to decide: what IS the best quote from Drop Dead Gorgeous?
Join host Eric Rezsnyak and panelists Amma Marfo, Bob Erlenback, and Jonny Minogue as they discuss and debate their favorite lines from the film.
