"Goodnight, We Love You" We just finished watching this movie, which is a combination concert film/bio centered around Phyllis Diller's farewell standup performance a few years ago. It was hilarious. →[More:]She's also a fascinating woman... I always liked her, but do even more after seeing this.

I've never even heard of this movie - thanks for the tip. Looking at the IMDB entry, all I need is to see Marty Allen, Jo Anne Worley AND Ruth Buzzi and I'm already interested. This is going on my NetFlix queue right now.

Be aware that the other folks listed appear for one or two soundbites apiece, so there's not a lot of screen time from them. But still rent it, because it's awesome and Phyllis will crack you up.

Also, Jo Anne Worley falls into that REALLY small category of "famous people I wish I could meet."

I figured, but it gives me a sense of the spirit of the film - as is Phylis Diller isn't enough!

And Jo Anne Worley was a fave of mine as a kid - I wanted to marry someone just like her when I got older.

Phyllis is so great. I always liked her as well. I'll rent this.

Even as a kid I loved her jokes about housework, when I didn't do housework.
