In 1978, “Saturday Night Live”. The hair, the clothes, that high-pitched and tremulous voice, the tall and blocky build moving awkwardly, as if the kitchen were too small to hold her — Dan Aykroyd has Julia Child down pat. “Itʹs time to bone the chicken,” Julia/Dan warbles. “For this, you need a very sharp knife, and you cut along the backbone like so…Oh, now Iʹve done it. Iʹve cut the dickens out of my finger.” The blood does not merely trickle; it gushes, it flows, her arm flops about, spurting crimson like some out-of-control fire hose. “Oh, God, itʹs throbbing,” Julia/Dan announces and makes a tourniquet from cheesecloth and a chicken bone — always the proper, resourceful foodie.
