This is the most obvious reason for why she would be on THE VIEW.
By the way, she's great in that movie, and there's a world in which she could get an Oscar nom for it, but the movie is SO esoteric and out there. She also doesn't show up until the last half hour. I just don't see it resonating with the Academy and large populist audiences. Maybe the NY Film Critics Circle. Nathan Lane is also, predictably, very funny in his little chunk in the middle, and Amy Ryan is solid as ever.
