Today's entry from Wikipedia's 'List of films considered the worst ever'

Yep.

Today, it's The Lonely Lady - never released on video, never released on DVD. Among it's highlights are:
i) Sexual assault of protagonist by a garden hose;
ii) Husband of sexual assault victim suggesting his wife 'probably enjoyed' her sexual assault;
iii) Sexual assault victim going on to use her 'feminie wiles' after her divorce to plough her way to screen-writing success;
iv) Award ceremony called 'The Awards'; and
v) A restoration of sexual assault victim's dignity when she refuses to accept The Award.

Look and lol.

So many lols:

"Shortly after winning A TROPHY for her creative writing..."

"The marriage begins to fall apart when she rewrites one of his scripts and improves it greatly - albeit by merely adding the word, "Why?"."

"Jerilee finally has a nervous breakdown in a sequence where she sees the callous people of her past appear as faces on the keys of her typewriter."

And then this happens, which I have a lot of trouble with:

"At the live awards telecast, she admits to her ex-husband Walter Thornton (in attendance) that she has never learned "the meaning of self-respect"."

Um, does the world really have to hate women so much?

I love that there's a period of boning studio executives to try to get her screenplay shown and she's like, "I don't get it. I boned all these guys and my screenplay STILL gets no love (?)"

Also: never came out on VHS or DVD (!).

Wow.

Also: (.)(.)

Still hilarious^
