Who else thought that the tension between them was mildly sensual and disturbing? The way C looks into her eyes and the way she caressed that demon growing out of his back...stayed with me for quite soem while after the scene finished. Even with that fro, JP is quite hot. Yep, I'm secure enough to say it!
Let's see now, we have frog eyes with independent monocular vision. We have a hyperextended forehead. We have BIG obvious growths on said forehead. We have a HUGE square, anything but feminine jawbone. And lastly, we have a profile that can break through reinforced walls...
Sooooooo, I don't know about you... But, with all due respect to the the lady's Mom and Dad, we basically have a pretty damn, eye-bleeding, weenie shrinking, testicle-drawing-up-inside-the-body-cavity ugly.....
I have over 4000 films, many of them very rare and OOP. I LOVE to trade. PLEASE ASK!
Heh heh... No, no... I'm just having a bit of fun. I'm NOT one of those stupid, senseless guys who mindlessly rants on about women's looks if they are not perfect models or porn stars or something, I promise! Actually, I honestly would not even have brought up the subject or started the thread myself; BUT... since this guy DID make a point of mentioning something related to her and also there is another thread on this film that is WAY more pointed as to how she looks, I was just jumping on here and being an idiot goofball
But, with all that said, I really, honestly, and truly personally feel that for a film where they were portraying this character in this way with him, they REALLY could have coughed up a better looking woman. I'm not kidding when I say that I was literally almost looking away from the screen whenever she was on it....
However, with all that said...
I will admit that my personal taste in women, as far as what I find attractive, would probably make most people react in exactly the same way I did to this lady. I like kind of really weird looks sometimes; ones who I am TOTALLY sure that most others would think are ugly.
To give you a great example, I thought that Sophia Coppala in 'THE GODFATHER III' was smok'n HOT! I thought she was TOTALLY gorgeous! But most people probably think her looks are kinda weird and definitely NOT good looking.
See, I kinda like girls with sort of Jewish looks. Somewhat of a big nose, smaller rounder chin, closer set eyes. TOTALLY the opposite of the actress in this film, as I so eloquently described her... But, most others probably think that she is funny looking. I guess I just like ANOTHER kind of funny looking girl...
I also think Sarah Silverman is kinda cute. Not really so much in still pictures, but while she is animated and talking, but you get the idea. She's DAMN funny too!
I also think that a couple years post 'THE BREAKFAST CLUB', Molly Ringwold was quite lovely. If you ever get to see her in the excellent film 'FRESH HORSES' (1987) she looks amazing!
Hmm, well. Now that you have poured your heart out...
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say.
Molly Ringwold is quite a catch. Redheads have this unique, strange kind of beauty to them. They often catch my eye.
Pornstars, I'm sure, often doll-up to cover the drug-and-alcohol scars and most of the time look fake. Though some German ones look like princesses and probably are more extrovert/sensible...
You have to understand that there is sex in the flesh and sex in the SPIRIT.
There is the thought that forms in the mind and illusion, if you like, of attraction. You can be horny without anybody in mind in particular. Maybe it all started in our minds?
Damn, I'm getting a bit Freudian, here.
Me, I don't admit to any particular fetish. I love all kinds. I find some actresses in certain movies just stunning, and never conventional or Hollywood bimbo-types.
For me though, I liked her a LOT better before she got so damn skeletal... GEEZ, why is it when these women have such a lovely shape and great looks, and for whatever reason they feel that they have to strip themselves down to practically an Auschwitz level
MAN... I hate that!
That is one thing that I REALLY appreciate about Scarlet Johannsen (sp?) WOW! Now, THERE is a nice old-world throwback to the larger, shaplier women of yesterday. She was on Letterman a number of months ago, and she just sat there in all her full bodied, LOVELY glory not the frigg'n LEAST bit self-conscious at all. MOST refreshing!!!

Wow. It sure is odd how we have certain "looks" we are attracted to. I agree with you. All of the women you've mentioned, I also find attractive. Then again, there is nothing wrong with any of them, as far as I'm concerned. Variety is the spice of life, after all! ;)
You just confirmed to me, by accident, that she had the "Innsmouth look" (read your Lovecraft)for one thing. Another is that Trent was horrified by her sexual advances, as was Lovecraft (their marriage was a disaster, his fiction grew)
For another, Cane is a reptile. The actors biography says born in June 1941, which would make him a Gemini Snake (Western/Eastern Astrology)
This film is deeper than most people suspect. It only takes a little reading.
2013 is the Year of the Snake RIGHT NOW. Violent upheavals are on the way. Mount Etna was erupting a little just a few hours ago. God is not the Christian one. Cane says, "Religion seeks discipline through fear, yet doesn't UNDERSTAND the true nature of Creation."
Google "Snake" "Astrology" "2013" and draw your own conclusions.
