Did you know?? Current high profile TVM in production with all-star cast including Michael Douglas (as Lib), Matt Damon (golddigger bf), Debbie Reynolds, Rob Lowe, Dan Aykroyd, gay fave Cheyenne Jackson and even my pal & hairdresser Paul Witten has a bit part in this thing!

Quite the big names for a TV movie (must be for HBO! ;))
