Nora Ephron is a genius! Although I’m probably too gentile to fully appreciate her wit 5🥗
Not only was she married to Carl Bernstein (1/2 of Woodward/Bernstein who broke THE Watergate scandal) but she figured out the identity of Deep Throat and would casually name drop ‘Mark Felt’ at dinner parties. A true legend gone way too soon!!
‘I want him back’
‘What do you want him back for? You just said he was a schmuck’
‘I want him back so I can yell at him and tell him his a schmuck, anyway he’s my schmuck and I want him to stop seeing her and I want him to say that he never really loved her and he must have been crazy and I want him to die and her to die to’
‘I thought you said you want him back’
‘I do but I want him back dead’
