Lindsay Wagner's character was so popular from SMDM that it was inevitable they would build a show around her. Luckily for LW, her contract with the network had expired by then, and she was able to negotiate a new and much more lucrative contract.
It's on Amazon Prime right now and I'm bingeing it from the first episode. Apparently after she flatlined in the OR, Steve left to grieve but the OR team defibrillated her and her heart started back up again. We learned a bit more of her past, and it was interesting. Jaime was a pro tennis player and the previous year had beaten Billie Jean King at the US Open!! That kind of made me roll my eyes, because BJK was still an active player, and her beating BJK would have been a big deal which considering her striking looks would undoubtedly given her tons of publicity. So that makes it strange to think Oscar and the OSI would make her a spy and keep her real name. I'd think it would be kind of hard for her to go undercover without her targets recognizing her and say "Aren't you that professional tennis player who beat BJK last year at the US Open?" Oh well, we have to utilize some suspension of disbelief with the whole idea of the show anyway...
I agree. I mean he's killing all these men because his wife is shtupping them all. Why not get to the center of the problem and knock his sleazy wife off? He's attractive and rich, he could easily find a replacement for her.
I think you're confused, it would be the MAGAt crowd that would protest a film about a cuckolded husband. Moms for Liberty would call this movie pornography and would be screaming what about the chilrun and demand it be removed from public consumption. All while they are cuckolding their own husbands in private. Such hypocrites.
Don't forget Nicolas Cage. I no longer will watch any movies that he's in because they are low quality crap.
You're right about the moved body. Not to be gross, but she had been dead for several days already and decomposition would have been well underway. Any coroner worth their salt would know that and it would be crazy to think that dead body would just be there in his damn bed, like, ask the wife if she noticed the dead body in her bed over the past few days? This movie was ridiculous. I'm still trying to piece together what exactly I just watched. Why did Pacino use that Asian guy to frame Duhamel for the woman's murder? What was the point? Pacino and Hopkins were in cahoots, and Hopkins paid him off for $400M to get the evidence back. So why bother setting Duhamel up for murder? And then why was Asian guy going to kill him and his wife and bury their bodies in a church? And at the end of it all, the only murders were committed by his wife and him??? I also just didn't understand Pacino's motives at all. He got the payoff, now be quiet and move on. This was terribly written and the wife's confession seemed identical to the scene in Presumed Innocent. What a waste of time.
Yeppers. In my 20s I had two affairs with "upstanding honorable men with integrity". It was strictly for sex, I wasn't going to break up any marriage. But they were the last people you would ever think would cheat on their wives. Thank god we never got caught, because now with the benefit of maturity and life experience, I realize how wrong I was, and how much of an asshole those two men were to cheat.
So unless that poster is a helicopter wife and keeps track of him every minute of the day, she shouldn't be so smug.
Yeah, when that poster said her husband would never cheat I squirmed. It's great to be all confident in your husband but that's just bad for her karma. The smugness and overconfidence is just asking for a comeuppance. It reminds me of that annoying Kathie Lee Gifford who put out a book, gloating about her marriage to Frank Gifford. She cavalierly wrote something like "Our marriage is based on christ and cheating is just not an option". So when Frank was caught cheating she looked even more like the idiot she was/is. Maybe that poster's husband falls into your two categories?
I went to Tulane, and Pacino's accent was way overdone. But I guess that's how moviegoers think people in New Orleans speak. It's kind of sexy in a way, but I never met someone there with that thick of an accent. It was more just your average southern accent. And Pacino went in and out of it throughout the film. So yeah, he should have just used his normal voice.
Previously, Pacino said his best work of his extensive career was in Cruising. He was most proud of it because it really stretched him as an actor, and he did extensive research for the role, even getting banged by several men to look authentic. But his role in Misconduct is obviously way up there too. That New Orleans accent was dead on, and his hair never looked better too.
Right? That sex scene with his young blonde hot girlfriend went on forever. It was so hot seeing 80 y/o Anthony Hopkins's ass with a brief full frontal. I couldn't take my eyes off of him!!! Yum!
She is one of my favorite actresses from the 40s. Loved her in her first 3 movies, Shadow of a Doubt and of course Best Years of Our Lives. I'm glad she came out of retirement for a final performance in Rainmaker. I watched it with my 90 y/o father and his favorite movie of all time is BYOOL, and he was so happy to see her again. RIP.
Hard to believe it was Mickey Rourke. He actually looked attractive and was aging really well. It's a mystery why he chose to destroy his face when he was becoming a silver fox. RIP, Rourke's original face.
Didn't Hank touch the CD, and therefore his prints would be on it? That was my take away. But that still doesn't remove the fact that he used his real name to rent the car, so..... I'm not sure either.
Obviously he wasn't too smart. I wondered the same thing too. He didn't recognize his father's car and the woman being dropped off? Must not have been paying attention to the little details.
Rewatching the series, and I thought that she was totally out of bounds. I'm having Thanksgiving dinner with my 90 y/o father's neighbors who have helped him immensely and since I'm visiting I'm invited too. Their household is absolutely opposite from me politically, but I would never dream of starting up with them politically over dinner. I really couldn't stand Sarah Bunting for constantly creating friction when she was inside their home. So rude and out of order. I was glad Tom let her go.
But that's the problem. I totally missed the "touching" dialogue between the two when they were sitting in the cab and he gave her the ring. All I could think of was the poor kitty. The last shot we saw of it the poor thing was drenched and looking sad watching its owner drive away. I couldn't concentrate on what they were saying or their emotions. I didn't care. I only cared about the cat.
I always assumed he was talking about oral and anal on her. I knew several Catholic girls in high school and college who would do everything including anal BUT vaginal sex so that they would be virgins on their wedding nights. I'm sure other Catholics have known girls like that. Also, no risk of pregnancy with anal sex, unless you were Trump's mother.
Exactly. You don't see Charlestown, Newtown, Livingstown, etc. The OP is just trying to stir up shit. Besides Downton is hardly anywhere near a downtown of any sort, being a country estate.
It was probably inevitable, given the medical knowledge and medications available at the time to treat preeclampsia and ecclampsia (seizures that Sybil had). She likely was doomed to die.
You're pathetic, whining over such a shit movie. Get out of your parents' basement.
