Mia Sara + Tim Curry


The movie is definitely flawed, but she stood out. Her scenes with darkness were superb imo, considering she was only like 15.

And obviously Tim Curry kicked ass in this movie.

Love this scene in particular.

She was like 17-18.

Check out the trivia

Mia Sara was only 15 during the filming of Legend. Sara was actually born in 1967, so she was 15 in 1982, which is when production for the film began. But it took a further three years before Legend was finally completed by Ridley Scott because of the film's immensely troubled production history.

The trivia is wrong, Blade Runner only premiered in September of 1982.



Ya Kirk-loving Spocksucker!

she was actually 16 as this movie came out in 1984 not 82

Why only the ones with Darkness?

It's because she virtually changes character. Her personality is a lot different from the personality she has when she's with Tom Cruise in those serene scenes.

And with the scenes with Darkness, it showcases her acting chops more imo. Just because the character is more layered and darker.

Those are my favorite scenes too. I actually think if it wasn't for the Darkness/Lily scenes, I wouldn't watch this movie as much as I do

Their scenes together are great and Imo, Curry is the heart
of the film.
