Roseanne Cherrie Barr (born November 3, 1952) is an American actress, comedian, writer, television producer, director and candidate for President of the United States with the Green Party of the United States. Barr began her career in stand-up comedy at clubs before gaining fame for her role in the sitcom Roseanne. The show was a hit and lasted nine seasons, from 1988 to 1997. She won both an Emmy Award and a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress for her work on the show. Barr had crafted a "fierce working-class domestic goddess" persona in the eight years preceding her sitcom and wanted to do a realistic show about a strong mother who was not a victim of patriarchal consumerism.
The granddaughter of immigrants from Europe and Russia, Barr was the oldest of four children in a working-class Jewish Salt Lake City family; she was also active in the LDS Church. In 1974 she married Bill Pentland, with whom she had three children, before divorcing in 1990 and marrying comedian Tom Arnold for four years. Controversy arose when she sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" off-key at a 1990 nationally aired baseball game, followed by spitting and grabbing her crotch.

Plot: Stazione di Anversa, venerdì pomeriggio. Guido aspetta un treno che sta per arrivare e, nell'attesa, ritorna con la mente all'ultima settimana trascorsa: certamente "strana" ed altrettanto emozionante. Sette giorni prima aveva ricevuto una telefonata: era una ragazza che diceva di chiamarsi Roseanne, di essere amica di Pierre, un amico di Guido, che lo aveva notato la sera prima ad una festa ed era interessata ad incontrarlo. Sulle prime, Guido pensa ad uno scherzo e, decidendo di stare al gioco, accetta l'appuntamento proposto dalla ragazza. Subito dopo telefona a Pierre, che non ricorda affatto questa ragazza. Il pomeriggio si incontrano e, dopo una passeggiata in auto, decidono di appartarsi in un luogo tranquillo per parlare e conoscersi meglio: la passione scoppia improvvisa! Ed una felicità incontenibile colpisce i due. Per i tre giorni successivi i due si incontrano sempre con più piacere ; lei gli telefona tre/quattro volte al giorno, in ufficio ed a casa, per sentirlo e mantenere acceso il rapporto. Ma chi era questa misteriosa ragazza, che al secondo giorno gli regala un accendino d'oro e che rifiuta, però, di dargli il proprio indirizzo ed il numero di telefono ? Di lei conosce a stento il nome. Il quarto giorno Roseanne deve andare fuori città a trovare dei parenti. Continua a telefonargli ogni giorno, sempre con l'ansia del ritorno. Il venerdì mattina, la ragazza lo chiama in ufficio per ricordargli che arriverà con il treno del pomeriggio e per raccomandargli di andarla a prendere alla stazione. Vuole rivederlo subito. Mentre Guido è perso in questi ricordi, il treno arriva ed i passeggeri scendono, avviandosi verso l'uscita; scendono anche i ferrovieri ed arrivano gli addetti alle pulizie delle vetture. Ma Roseanne non arriva! Non la rivedrà mai più e non saprà più nulla di lei. Ed è tutto vero !
