"What is the matter with you? I thought mothers were sweet and nice and patient. I know loan sharks who are more forgiving than you. Your husband ain't dead, lady. He's hiding." We watched "The Ref" with our friend Darren Elms and if you're still looking for last minute gifts for us - Slipper Socks. Medium. We're so glad we got around to reviewing this true Christmas cult classic. If you're not quite sure why we decided on this one, the cast alone should reveal all. Judy Davis, Christine Baranski and Glynis Johns are the real queen divas of this film and, stay with us here, but 1994 Denis Leary can get it. Judy Davis is serving up her '90s mom realness with her spiky pixie cut and trademark brown lipstick and her performance is nothing short of perfection as the acid tongued Caroline. You absolutely love to hate Glynis Johns as the mother-in-law from Hell and MTMUG All Star Christine Baranski has some majorly quotable lines. Speaking of the legendary Ms. Baranski, we sneak in a Leading Ladies quiz commemorating Seven movies with Christine and it's a ton of fun. This underrated family dramedy is pretty hilarious and a nice little Christmas movie to add to your regular holiday re-watch rotation.
