Yes, it is so used.

Thanks.
Eeewww. :P
Any guy who would refer to a woman as his "fuck buddy" is no gentleman. >:(
I didn't even know the term was used by anyone other than gay men. :-\

I saw Midnight, with Claudette, Don Ameche, John Barrymore, Mary Astor, and--believe it or not, as an actor--Hedda Hopper! :o Ben Mankeweicz said the movie was hell on the director. By that point Claudette could get in her contracts that she could only be photographed from her left side--and Barrymore was by then a hopeless drunk. :(
Doncha just love the "autogyro" in IHON? ;D
I remember Blade Runner as being very ... damp. ;D And--I think--a female android who acted like a Coppelia who had way too much caffeine. 8)

Oh yeah, I didn't mention I watched Midnight, too. Kind of a crazy, overbaked plot, but I thought the writing was actually quite funny. I don't remember which character Hedda Hopper played, though.
Yes, Blade Runner has lots of rain! I guess that's part of how they envisioned the future of climate change in 1982. People smoke like chimneys in it, though. They didn't foresee all the anti-smoking laws. ;D

Hedda Hopper was the hostess at that musical soiree that Claudette Colbert sneaked into using her pawn ticket. ;D Then she showed up at the hat shop, and at the weekend house party that Mary Astor and John Barrymore gave. I had to look up the movie at IMDb to make sure it was her.

Yay! One Day opens tomorrow! I hope Anne has a more agreeable character to play in this movie... If not, I'm going to have to start wondering if there's a Brokeback curse ???
