    The Benjamin N. Duke House from “The First Wives Club”

    ‘ They say revenge is a dish best served cold.  Well, I think revenge movies are a dish best served with a side of comedy.  The Other Woman?  9 to 5?  The Sting?  The First Wives Club?  All perfection!  The latter is one of my ultimate favorites, so when I saw the address of the…
