Amelitas's Scar


I remember being horrified by what Hendricks did to Amelita when I saw this film as a kid in the 70's. My naivete kept asking why a man would do such an awful thing to a woman. It stuck with me for some reason. When I was older, I began thinking of what I'd say to her or any beautiful woman who's face was scarred. This is what I've come up with:

You know what that scar really does? It provides a contrast. It calls attention to just how beautiful you are."

Kinda lame, I know, but that's what I'd say. I have no idea why I posted this. I guess because Rio Lobo is running on TV just now.

Most skeptics are terrified it's all real and are desperate to prove otherwise.

This was pretty brave of you...

Sherry Lansing back then was so mind-bogglingly gorgeous, it would take a hell of a lot more than that scar to keep her from being beautiful. I mean she was absolutely STUNNING in this film.

Sherry Lansing is STILL gorgeous, actually !!
