Which One of You B@tches is My Mother?…..Happy Birthday Phoebe Cates!

Happy Birthday, Phoebe Cates.  She’s 48 today and got to say one of the most immortal lines from 1980’s television in “Lace”:

I also loved her in “Shag”

She made several more popular films in the 1980’s- early 1990’s ,”Gremlins” and “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” among them,  before becoming Mrs. Kevin Kline and putting her career on hold to raise a family.

Another of my favorite actresses from that era, Elizabeth McGovern, recently came back and made a big splash in “Downton Abbey”.

I hope the same will happen one day soon for Phoebe Cates.
