Although this will probably get me uninvited to Emily Sutton's annual Summertime Sunshine Jubilee, I have a confession to make – I hated the movie Twister.
When it was released in 1996, during the heart of that decade's drab summer blockbuster disaster film boom, I thought it was an absurdly unrealistic, poorly written flick that reinforced the folksy, churchy, country lovin' stereotype of the Oklahoma people that still exists today. But...I did think it was cool that it was filmed in Oklahoma, and that some girl I barely knew from high school got to play the role of Drive-In Girl.
