The Stepford Wives
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.
'Beneath You'
Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I love "Backbeat"! Also had early Ian Hart. Good stuff.
And Sheryl Lee with a pixie cut. One of her better roles, I think. She's an underrated actress. I wish she got more work.

Always Anti-fascist!
I love that movie...and she did have great hair.

David, Sheryl was originally cast as Mary Alice, the dead Desperate Housewife, but she was replaced because they thought her voiceovers were too ethereal.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
But she's a frakking ghost! Aren't ghosts supposed to be ethereal?
I always mix Sheryl Lee with that other girl from TP... er, Sherilyn Fenn? Whichever one was in the atrocious Boxing Helena and slept with Pacey while he was the chef's apprentice. Also, with that other annoying, anorexic chick from Practice. Also sher-something. Possibly. They all have these predatory, pinched faces, although perhaps not as much for Sheryl Lee.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
but she was replaced because they thought her voiceovers were too ethereal.
I thought she was replaced because she quit the show. (And if they replaced her because they didn't like her voice, why did they recast the role with someone who sounds exactly the same?)

Sherilyn Fenn, of the incredible Playboy shoot and the bad movie choices, played Audrey Horne of the saddle shoes and cherry stem.
Lara Flynn Boyle, of The Practice fame and the infamous butt bleaching, played Donna Hayward, Laura Palmer's best friend.
Madchen Amick, who has little fame or infamy, but is very pretty, played Shelly Johnson, the younog married waitress who was doing Bobby Briggs.

If I only had a brain...
Huh. I heard the infamous butt bleaching story about Angelina Jolie.

Of all the AJ gossip I've read on E Online, butt bleaching hasn't come into it. However, with LFB, Ted wouldn't shut up about it for *years*.
That was back when LFB was still sleeping with that unattractive, overrated JN dude.

Thanks, Plei. Those Twin Peaks girls have always confused me. (Except Joan Chen. Humina, humina.) Good thing they all still have a career. Of sorts.
Amick is always playing 'the other woman' in one thing or another. I think the last place I've seen her was on Gilmore Girls. And Lara Flynn Boyle. Urgh. She's the one who wore a tutu to an award ceremony, right?
At least Sheryl Lee will always have Backbeat. She was mesmerizing as Astrid. The director, Iain Softley, went on to make what turned out to be my favorite flick among the 90's Merchant/Ivory-esque Henry James/EM Forster adaptation boom, The Wings of the Dove. It's too bad the last thing he had to show for himself was K-PAX.
