All That Cholesterol in French Butter!
by Faramarz on Thu Feb 03, 2011 06:30 PM PSTShe should have cut back on the butter and used grape seed oil!
Thanks DK.
Was this movie ever shown in Iran?
I remember that even kids my age back then were talking about the “buttery” scene, without even having seen it!
"buttering up the persian butts"
by Roozbeh_Gilani on Thu Feb 03, 2011 03:30 PM PSTMust have been a lot of Kosher butter to get that darn stucknet worm up the islamists nuke dream's rear end so effectively, albeit painfully!

God bless her soul. She buttered up a lot of Persian butts with her talent. Thanks dear DK for your thoughtful blog; although it is a sad news, it's good that we're not asked to sign a petition for this one. !
Never increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything.
What a loss!
by Souri on Thu Feb 03, 2011 01:37 PM PSTI liked her. She was looking very good in 72 and also had played some other daring roles after that. A good actress. May her soul rests in peace.
