Storyline

Plot Summary:Cookie’s Fortune unfolds over an eventful Easter weekend in the small town of Holly Springs, Mississippi. The town residents are peaceful, kind folk–with the exception of Camille Dixon (Glenn Close)–a pushy theatre director with an incredibly shy younger sister, Cora (Julianne Moore), whose estranged daughter Emma (Liv Tyler) has just returned to town. On the heels of her latest play, Camille is shocked to discover that her Aunt Jewel Mae “Cookie” Orcutt (Patricia Neal) has committed suicide. Terrified at the thought of how this will tarnish the family name, she eats the suicide note to make it look like a burglary. This set-up leads the police to one main suspect, Willis Richland (Charles S. Dutton), who also happens to be Cookie’s best friend. Although the rest of the town is convinced Willis didn’t commit the crime, an outside investigator (Courtney B. Vance) isn’t so sure. As Easter Sunday and opening night of the play arrive, the truth comes out, revealing more secrets than anyone could have possibly imagined. Director Altman tells his story at a leisurely pace, beautifully recreating the eccentricities of small town life in this sweet-natured tale.

You pretty much have to be an Indian too in order to work at Subway. Oh well, got that covered, I guess! Are we going to wake up one day, go to work and find an angry Chinese or Japanese man yelling at us? By the end of 2011, will most Americans finally be able to read their fortune cookie’s Chinese lettering, order in Chinese and use chopsticks? Better start learning…NI HAO!

Which do you enjoy more: The fortune cookie or the cookie’s fortune?

Have you ever had a fortune cookie’s message come true?
Only once. It said "You will come into great wealth" And I found a 10 dollar bill on the ground the next day!

What do you make of someone who won’t share their cookie’s fortune with you? How should I treat her from now
on? We had lunch together and she was being pretty blunt about thinking ill of my work style. (She wanted my job and didn’t get it.) My fortune said "Someone is speaking well of you." I laughed and showed it to her, and she laughed too. But she did not offer me a peek at hers. What do you think hers said?

do you do whatever the voices in your head tell you to do??
I do. but i’m just wondering if you agree with my fortune cookie’s words of wisdom…
"Our life is the creation of our mind" O_o? i believe it. i have a great mind, very weird and so is my life. lol. do you guys agree? poll:arms dealer or circus clown (which sounds more like a job you’d do?) i could go either way. lol!
shhhhhhh Happily Married…! we’re playing hide and seek!!!! i dont’ need you to give up my hiding spot to the men in white lab coats! i’m winning!
i know same here futility knife!

Do you ever get upset with your fortune cookie’s prediction?

Survey – Should one give weight to their fortune cookie’s advice, or look more towards their horoscope?
The duality…
and
No, crow the party has not even started yet.
I am naturally silly.

what do people add to the end of a fortune cookie’s fortune when they read it?
you know, i’ve heard some funny ones but is there a main one?

Have you ever read a fortune cookie’s fortune and it came true?
I have one that says "When the time comes, take the top one”.

~If the STORY of your LIFE was written in a FORTUNE COOKIE~?
How would it read? So, someone is opening a fortune cookie…….this cookie’s fortune is a fortune about "YOUR" life….. What would they be reading?
Don’t forget, only a few words… I think max like 10-12(?) are written on those..
