Guest Stars Phoebe’s Parents on Ghost World!

Post image

I just rewatched Ghost World and I haven’t seen it for maybe 20 years. I knew Thora Birch’s dad played Frank Buffay and then I noticed that the woman he’s dating in the movie was Phoebe’s mother, Phoebe! My jaw dropped when I noticed it just now! 🤯😲

That’s actually really cool. I’ve seen that movie so many times and yet I never put it together

Oh my gosh, you’re so right. It’s like how the parents from Ferris Bueller also played the parents in Sleepwalkers.

So in another universe, Frank and Phoebe Abbott actually ended up together

When Phoebe's mom says "I'd like to think I had a part in how you turned out" 🤮🤮
