Re: "Fatal Attraction...Special Edition" DVD

I think it's fair to say that some disagree with your perspective on this.

Michael Douglas seems to have learned his acting technique from his father. But his father had the real chops for scenery-chomping. Michael doesn't.

Glen Close's best role by far was as Cruella Devil in the excrable Disney "1001 Dalmatians" The cartoon was rather charming; Close's head-over-heels-over-the-top performance was witless and artless and made watching the "live action" version of the story rather like eating a layer cake that didn't rise -- hard to swallow. What's worse is they made a sequel and Close accepted the role.

I guess Close and Douglas deserve each other in a perverse sort of way; maybe they can do a sequel to "Fatal Attraction" after they've both hit 60 and actuall die in the film. What a concept!
