A FEW OTHER PEOPLE YOU MAY HAVE OVERLOOKED THAT WE'VE LOOKED OVER |
by pat ![]() She's a bit like Natalie Portman, only with more curves and fewer good career choices. Sure, I may sit through "Anti-Trust" or "Get Carter" because she's in it, and she is very watchable, but they aren't exactly stellar films. I couldn't bring myself to watch "The Baby Sitters Club," which is probably a good thing if I ever decide to run for office. Anyway, her dry, almost uncomfortable delivery makes her that much more endearing. You know she's trying so hard to act, that makes it enough. I should mention she
does have her share of decent films. "She's All That" we are
all aware of, a welcome return of the predictable geek turns hot 80's
movies. "Carpool" was just plain likeable. I don't care if you
believe me, anyone who admits they've seen it will tell you the same thing.
"House of Yes" gets her some art film experience, which helps
weigh out the "Texas Rangers" type films we have to sit through.
While we can't look at her, she gets cool points for her work on "Batman
Beyond." Lastly, "Josie and the
Pussycats." Read the review. One of those rare DangerSeekers
Unanimous Praise Selections. |

Avoiding typecasting, Racael Leigh Cook declined the lead in "Gem! On Broadway!" The part was quickly snapped up by Jenna von Oy. |
