There is no question about the original being utterly superior inspite of Michael Cane trying his best in both. Yeah, I know, the Deathtrap will claim to be original too, but the parallels are way too obvious. The Sleuth also doesn't have to deal with the Christopher Reeve's wooden acting. I am wxtremely sorry to see bad things happen to basically good people, but he would be the one to play Al Gore with no makeup in some silly political spoof - don't you think so? John Travolta did such excellent job impersonating Clinton's ugliness that the issue of external similarities may be moot, but still, how many actors are out there who look sooo similar to their potential characters?There is an actress out there who looks about 120% as Hillary - anyone could help me with her name? I have seen her in a couple of crappy movies and can't recall the name.
You have probably not seen that one, but there is a Russian actor who could perfectly be mistaken for Brezhnev. He apparently actually played him too.
Any candidates for Clinton's legacy movie? Any other famous characters?
Sleuth is a great movie based on a great play. As for Christopher Reeve, my girlfriend swoons every time she watches "Somewhere In Time" (somebody erase that tape, please). I thought he did a respectable job in one of those Merchant Ivory period films (can't remember which, "Howard's End" or "Remains of the Day").Somebody should get Gore to play Frankenstein's monster in a film; the only thing missing is a pair of bolts on the side of the neck. Can hear it now: "Social security good, fire bad."
You've got me stumped (and scared) that an actress looks like Hilary.

That is still whole lot better than what most Hollywood clowns can produce.

ROTFLMAO - did your girlfriend see this line?
*You've got me stumped (and scared) that an actress looks like Hilary.
She is actually not bad looking (the actress, as I remember). She would need a lot of padding of course - baggy pants full of cotton will do. But I don't know how one would get whose liquid-helium-cold fish eyes... Peltier cooller, perhaps?
She's looking older & not as hot these days. But, if you say Virginia Madsen, I will hunt you down!!!BTW, who's the consulting moron that told Hilary to look even more retarded by standing sideways & talking over her shoulder? Haven't we gotten over this sexist BS, that woman has to appear thin in order to be electable, yet? Granted as NYer, I aint voting that thing, but it has absolutely no bearing on her size, hairstyle, gender, or sexual-orientation. It has everything to do with her inability to do anything right except maybe "play" the stock market & the extra-chromosome media?
***It has everything to do with her inability to do anything right except maybe "play" the stock market & the extra-chromosome media?She is soo good, all we need to do is give her $50B and let her play the market for few days - she will bring home that $5T we need.
And what is that about Virginia? She has always been one of the females with style, even if not too good an acress. Of course you can always blame that on the luck or lack thereof. Has she played anything lately? By the time I managed to convince my wife Virginia was beautiful, she simply disappeared.
Myabe my wife made her disappear? Who knows... with them wives...
I saw Virginia Madsen last week as one of four music panelists on VH1's "The List" program. Other than that, butkus! Oh well, there's always "Gotham", "The Prophecy", "Candyman", and "The Hot Spot" (with Jennifer Connelly, how can you go wrong with this one?).
Electric Dreams
she did do a Fraser episode, but I don't recall anything substantial.
...all I need to do is tell my wife Hillary is beautiful. She'll do that voodoo that she'll do so well... than you, Cole...
I hate the threat of having that incompetant Nazi possibly representing my state in the U.S. Senate. It's bad enough that we now, as of the last election, have a proud socialist instead of a liberal Republican that the media misrepresented his reknown moderate POV as extremist.Now, they're on some f'n kick that after 7 years of Clinton policies that Hillary claims an active hand in, that Rudi couldn't elliminate homelessness in spite of the federal executive branch's best efforts to grow said demographic.
hey Mart,
let's keep this a politics-free zone.
Sorry! I couldn't resist venting on such a foreboding prospect. The impending demise of that which remains of my state so too great a loss not to take it personally.
Reeves played an English Nazi sympathist in Remains of the Day. He was quite good in it (as were the other actors). I haven't seen Deathtrap (I'll have to rent it) but Sleuth is a great movie! Hmm...I think I'll order the DVD right now!
