Supplying Props

Bridgette's refrigerator is crammed with Pom juice, bottled water, white wine and organic produce for the children. Her closet is large with rows of neatly hung designer clothes that are too young for her. Plunging necklines and gaudy prints. She has many shoes. She won't throw any away even though many are nicked and worn. Her medicine closet houses prescriptions for anti-anxiety medications and Strivectin cream. Her over sized SUV has Starbucks stains, gum wrappers and many small items like change and lip sticks that have dumped out of her bag the numerous times that she has hit the brakes hard because she was on the blackberry she doesn't really need that she has glued a cherry rhinestone applique onto.

  1. You've got a beautiful knack for revealing character through details, Jen. The lipsticks spilling from her bag when she hits the brakes, or the blinged Blackberry -- very nice.
