Well, they&#8217;re actually the characters who reprise those TV roles as the movie takes on the remaking of the sitcom. Or, something like that. But, never mind that; it&#8217;s not important.<\/p>\n<p>What I want to warn you about is the horrible job Ms. Kidman does in wiggling her nose. In point of fact, her nose hardly moves at all. Her <i>mouth<\/i> goes back and forth, and to the extent that there are peripheral fleshy shifts, you can detect a slight nasal leaning, but nothing that will qualify as a wiggle.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;d think, wouldn&#8217;t you, that in this era of anything-you-can- imagine-can-be-green-screened that Hollywood could give Ms. Kidman a decent nose twitch.
