This movie became the montra by which all of my sisters and my mother related to each other.  Every time I would hang up the phone with my mother, I would say: "I love you more'n my luggage" and we are constantly quoting it to each other.  Since my mother died from cancer at 45 in November 2000, which was accompanied by kidney failure, the movie took an all too real turn.  I would have ever thought I could relate to this movie in such a real way before.  It did look like she had been "driving nails up her arms." and what was once funny on television became too real to understand.  I have been unable to watch the movie since she died, but it has and will forever be my life on screen.
