You also don't remember her because she's in it for a very small amount of time. Grand total maybe 5 minutes, if that. Considering how much of the plot centers around her existence, she doesn't play a very important role in the film.
Colin Firth and John Malkovich
Alec Baldwin & Harrison Ford
The guy in that movie by that guy.
Clear and Present Danger. What the hell is his name?
Right?
eta: Apparently it's Jack Ryan.
Yep. One in 1988 one in 1989. Both very good films. Weirdness.
I could have used the same movies (plus that adaptation whose name is slipping my mind) to say:
Annette Bening and Glenn Close and Sarah Michelle Gellar
or
Uma Thurman and Faruza Balk and ...memfault, that girl who I usually kind of like...
or
Meg Tilly and Michelle Pfeiffer and Reese Witherspoon
...
I only guessed it because I was thinking of using the two movies but didn't know who was in Valmont.
I saw that on Broadway with Alan Rickman as Valmont.
swoons at the memory
Cary Grant and Bing Crosby
I saw it on Broadway with Laura Linney as Merteuil, which was a spectacularly bad piece of casting. It was a pretty terrible production.
Jealous of the Rickman viewing.
