Never has a semi-respectable actress (ie not a skeezebag like Tara Reid) been in so many awful movies. What's her deal?

No 'A Little Romance'?

Michael White, Thursday, 2 August 2007 18:53 (sixteen years ago) link

She was on Topsail Island filming a movie with Richard Gere when I was there in June. We didn't have dinner or anything though.

Kerm, Thursday, 2 August 2007 19:00 (sixteen years ago) link

she's so hot, and unfaithful is amazing

http://www.splicedonline.com/02reviews/unfaithful.jpg

not to mention that man

Surmounter, Thursday, 2 August 2007 19:04 (sixteen years ago) link

There's been a definite decline there since about 1994 hasn't there? A drop-off in quality, if you will. Streets Of Fire walks this one.

Matt #2, Thursday, 2 August 2007 19:04 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh, I so crushed on Diane Lane when I was in high school, after seeing "The Outsiders" in the ninth grade. Totally "Streets of Fire" on this one.

Diane Lane = Heather Locklear with her hair dyed brown

Heave Ho, Thursday, 2 August 2007 19:39 (sixteen years ago) link

Unfaithful earns this decade's Frances award for terrible films with a fantastic lead performance.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Thursday, 2 August 2007 23:34 (sixteen years ago) link

please, unfaithful was NOT a terrible film. it was the epitome of campy trashy entertainment. so fun. and she was incrdibly sexy in it. thx for pix

Surmounter, Thursday, 2 August 2007 23:43 (sixteen years ago) link

Fabulous Stains for me.

campy trashy entertainment. so fun.

it's too slow to be fun

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Thursday, 2 August 2007 23:52 (sixteen years ago) link

RE:Stains

Has that ever gotten a proper (re-)release? I'd love to see it.

C. Grisso/McCain, Thursday, 2 August 2007 23:53 (sixteen years ago) link

i did not think it was slow at all i was lke riveted the whole time. AGREE TO DISAGREE OK?????

Surmounter, Thursday, 2 August 2007 23:54 (sixteen years ago) link

Surmounter, your hot boi Olivier Martinez was also in Before Night Falls with similarly floppy locks.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 3 August 2007 00:00 (sixteen years ago) link

Luke Y. Thompson sticks it to Adrian Lyne in his review of Unfaithful

He tries to spice things up each time with a bit of metaphor: AIDS in Fatal Attraction, class envy in Indecent Proposal, pedophilia in Lolita and a vague drug-addiction metaphor here (Constance oversleeps, drives badly and neglects her kid because she needs, needs, needs French cock).

C. Grisso/McCain, Friday, 3 August 2007 00:13 (sixteen years ago) link

hokey but well-executed action romp Perfect Storm v sex in the hallway in Unfaithful.

Gukbe, Friday, 3 August 2007 00:22 (sixteen years ago) link

btw, is it time to re-evaluate the Cotton Club?

Gukbe, Friday, 3 August 2007 00:23 (sixteen years ago) link

The sex scenes in Unfaithful... good lord...

that tag line sucks

Jimmy The Mod Awaits The Return Of His Beloved, Friday, 3 August 2007 03:23 (sixteen years ago) link

actually, i'm glad that between the tag line and the poster you pretty much know the story without having to see the movie

latebloomer, Friday, 3 August 2007 03:30 (sixteen years ago) link

the director of that movie went onto direct the episode of the next generation where picard keeps having the dream about the pair

scott seward, Friday, 3 August 2007 03:47 (sixteen years ago) link

Cattle Annie & Little Britches is awesome too! It should really be on dvd. Even pauline kael loved it. AND SHE WAS A HARD WOMAN TO PLEASE IF YOU WEREN'T BRIAN DEPALMA.

scott seward, Friday, 3 August 2007 03:49 (sixteen years ago) link

cotton club really derailed her career for a while there, no credits in 85 & 86

gershy, Friday, 3 August 2007 03:51 (sixteen years ago) link

a walk on the moon was good too. and so was a perfect storm. and i liked the big town. and the cotton club. and of course i love streets of fire and rumble fish and the outsiders and ladies and gentlemen, the fabulous stains. SHE HAS BEEN IN LOTS OF GOOD MOVIES!

scott seward, Friday, 3 August 2007 03:52 (sixteen years ago) link

omg, i totally forgot about hard ball

She gets nice line in Rob Lowe's memoir, in the part about The Outsiders that was excerpted in Vanity Fair.

Catholic school girl in "Rumble Fish" was imprinted permanently on my teenage mind in the early '80s.

Not to mention daydream fantasy sequence in shop class.
