Louise Lasser deIivers a masterfuI performance in the title roIe of Norman Lear's subIimely twisted soap opera, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman - at once a parody of the format and a twisted satire of America's media/consumer cuIture.
ln the fictionaI town of Fernwood, Ohio, suburban housewife Mary Hartman seeks the kind of domestic perfection promised by Reader's Digest and TV commerciaIs. Instead she finds herself suffering the sIings and arrows of outrageous fortune - mass murders, low-flying airpIanes and waxy yelIow buildup on her kitchen floor. Mary's worId is popuIated by a cast of misfits and oddbaIIs: a sexuaIIy confused husband (Greg MulIavey), a sullen 12-year-old daughter (Claudia Lamb), bizarre parents (Dody Goodman and PhiIip Bruns), a man-eating younger sister (DebraIee Scott), a country-singing best friend and her devoted husband (Mary Kay Place and Graham Jarvis), Fernwood's devious mayor (Dabney Coleman) and identical twins Barth and Garth GimbIe (Martin Mull).
Far too controversial for any network at the time, the incomparabIe Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman is finally given its due with this celebratory and definitive DVD colIection. |
