The Final Cut

Movie of the week: August 6, 1993 -- EW suggests movie titles for the real life story of a wife who cut off his husband's penis

Movie of the week: August 6, 1993

By now everyone has heard about the Manassas, Va., man whose wife, claiming he had raped her, cut off his penis with a kitchen knife. A team of surgeons successfully reattached the offending member, but there's an even happier outcome: Now the unidentified spouses are trying to sell TV-movie rights to the story. Naturally, they're going to need a title, and, for their consideration, Entertainment Weekly would like to make a few suggestions:

· Cutter and Bone
· Bye Bye Birdie
· Farewell My Lovely
· She's Gotta Have It
· Divorce American Style
· Little Man Tate
· Return of the Pink Panther
· Poetic Justice
· Pee-wee's Big Adventure
· The Unbearable Lightness of Being
· You Can't Take it With You
· Where's Poppa?
· Free Willy
