Even if you're not an old movie buff you can appreciate the parody.

It would be funny to see this one done, as well...

"In The Washington Post, columnist Dana Milbank compared Clinton's plight to a well-known dead parrot sketch by the Monty Python comedy troupe, in which a customer tries to return a deceased bird to a pet shop only to be told it is sleeping or stunned.

'This is an ex-parrot,' the customer insists.

'This is an ex-candidate,' the Post headline said."

She has passed over into the great beyond. I weep.

"She has passed over into the great beyond. I weep."

Hillary or Gloria?

Both.

Here's the real movie clip on youtube.

"Sunset Boulevard" - The Final Scene (1950)

I thought the parody was pretty true to the original.

"I am big. It's the pictures that got smaller."
~Norma "I'm Having A Hillary Moment" Desmond
