She told ‘Vanity Fair’, “Alan Cumming, come on. He's such a force. I was so thrilled that he was going to be in ‘Romy and Michele’. He was so good. And then getting to meet him, and he's so fun and light, so down to earth, but still like a little bit of that, oh, what is it? I don't know, joie de vivre. It's like Parker Posey. It's like they're an event, you know, in and of themselves”.

The movie starred Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino as the title characters, two women from the Los Angeles area who decide to pretend they are successful when they travel to Arizona to attend their 10-year high school reunion.

As per ‘People’, Janeane Garofalo, Justin Theroux and Elaine Hendrix also starred in the movie. Kudrow's co-star in the film, Sorvino, recently reflected on the cultural resonance of the film.

Speaking on the latest episode of Sophia Bush's Work in Progress podcast, 58-year-old Sorvino described the film as "evergreen" and said that at a recent screening she and the film's screenwriter and producer, Robin Schiff, were treated like "rock stars”.

Sorvino shared, "I'm continuously amazed at how much this movie has meant to people in their lives. This is all pending, them making deals, them saying yes, but they're all in there”.
