May Day connects to Floralia, inspiring surreal film screenings at local theaters featuring works by David Lynch and Robert Altman.
Her initial withdrawal is what makes Spacek's gradual transformation so striking. As Pinky begins to emulate Millie (Shelley Duvall), her more established, relentlessly chatty co-worker, she takes Millie's adultness to an extreme: She starts smoking, layers on makeup, hooks up with their married landlord Edgar (Robert Fortier), borrows Millie's car without asking, and generally turns into a sassy pill. Spacek's voice gets a little deeper, her mannerisms more suggestive.
