Death Becomes Her (1992)
Bruce Willis is not an action hero and is inexplicably irresistibly sexy to Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn. Also featuring Isabella Rossellini being confusingly enchanting. The former 2 fight over him and in their fight seek immortal youth and beauty. The perils of immortality and the pursuit of eternal beauty/youth will be on full display, as well as universally important philosophical questions such as "If I have to be the personal attendant and sex toy of 2 banging undead milfs forever, is eternal life even worth living?" 104 minutes

what kind of vpn do you recommend?
Mullvad or Proton are my top recommendations, with a preference for Mullvad. It does cost a bit of money but they're pretty cheap and seem trustworthy in ways that a lot of other VPN providers do not.
Thanks! Can I ask why a VPN is required because of peering? Is there some sort of risk if I don't use a VPN?
