It all makes me wonder how Anna Quayle the person felt as her
character went downhill. Of course, it's only fiction, but how would
an obviously beautiful and sexy woman feel to be thrown around and
rejected, constantly subjected to humiliating destruction of her
glamorous costumes, makeup, hair, etc. Of course, she must have been
in on the secret of, "Why am I the erotic highlight of a kid's
movie?" I agree with you regarding the last scene of her locked in
that cage, her hairdo falling apart and soot on her cheeks. What man
wouldn't push through the jeering crowd and rescue her? By the way, I
think this must have been the acting job of his life for Mr Fromme.
I've seen that Bewitched episode on the old Nick at Night, and it was
quite memorable. Samantha wiggles her nose so that a dog will grab a
strand of Nancy's dress, which spins her around until she's down to
her underwear. I also remember her black wig falling off to reveal a
tight bun of blonde hair, then her running to her father in a
frantically embarassed state.
Bill, get the "Brothers Grimm" dvd. Monica Bellucci plays a Queen who
loses, regains and loses again, her spectacular beauty in some very
frightening ways. Too bad; I know the film code still dictates that
evil has to lose. Anyway, tell me what you think.
Great Eva Longoria site! I joined and posted a comment! Definitely
the most beautiful woman on TV! Nice work, Bill!
Happy Holidays & I'll be back,
Len
