Vanessa Redgrave?
Eeek. I loathe Camelot. Especially that "If I Ever Leave You" song. God, gag me with a spoon.
Helen Mirren?
Played Morgan Le Fey (and rocked like a a great big rocking thing), not Guinevere.
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

That figures. I mean, that's who I'd cast as Morgan Le Fey. It's been a long time since I've seen it. Mostly I remember they scooped up pretty much all the leads from the RSC for it. It's practically a year-book snapshot.
I loathe Camelot.
Oh Vonnie. And I thought we shared a brain.

It's only a model!
Heh. I remember back in the late 80s I picked a quartet of actors that I thought were going to go places based on early performances. Julia Roberts, Dermot Mulroney, John J. York, and Kelly Preston. I'm happy that the middle two are still working and the last probably doesn't need to anymore, although Julia seems to have sucked up the lion's share of the success.
I saw the "whatever happened to Samantha Mathis" question, and then a big conversation about six degrees of separation, but not sure the question ever got answered.
She was one of the ... uh, seers (?) in Minority Report, was the mother in In America, and was a really hot mermaid arguing with a really hot Larry Mullen Jr in U2's gorgeous "Electrical Storm" video.
Was she also in Sweet and Lowdown? Wasn't she nominated for an Oscar for that?
That's Samantha Morton.
Did you guys know that there is a vampire movie with Adrian Paul and Bai Ling?
I'm thinking it must be cheesie fun.
It's called "The Breed" and it's on Netflix. (I knew that there would be no reason to own it.)
The cheese is of the limburger variety.
Though I will admits Bai Ling's potrayal of dangerous inhuman creatures gets more convincing with every such role.
Looks like Samantha Mathis has had a fair number of projects (nearly 40) in the 15 years since Pump Up the Volume, so although she didn't become the next Winona Ryder (good? bad? you make the call), it looks like she's doing okay.
