BACK TO REEL LIFE

Remember Danielle Brisebois, who played Archie’s little niece (and sometimes pain in the butt) on “Archie Bunker’s Place”? Next month, a grown-up version (she’s 18 now) will be toting machine guns alongside Mama Angie Dickinson in Concorde’s “Big Bad Mama II”: “We rob banks,” she said. “It’s like ‘Bonnie and Clyde’ but with a mother and daughter.”

As for comparing it to “Big Bad Mama” (from 1974, which achieved cult status largely due to a sizzling scene with Dickinson and William Shatner), Brisebois claims the sequel will be an improvement--with “less . . . steam.” She had taken time out from the Biz to hang with friends here in L.A., shop, go to movies and do “regular things. . . . It was nice because I had worked all my life without a break. I got a chance to see what real life was all about.”
