She was an interesting match for Eastwood in Tightrope.

Posted: 9/11/12 at 7:47pmThank you JohnBoy for mentioning "Obsession." Loved her in it, Cliff Robertson was so creepy and while the ending was telegraphed a mile away, I still found the whole thing massively unsettling. I was 15 at the time, so forgive me...and I had not yet seen "Vertigo."

As I told Phyl, I first fell in love with her in "Anne of the Thousand Cleves."
As did I, Regi. I was working as an usher where the film played an extended run (kids, ask your parents: there was a day when a hit movie stayed in a theater for months, not just a week or two). I knew the exact time of all her big scenes and made sure I was in the house for them.
And the sight of her bosom heaving over the confines of a Renaissance bodice was one of the few times in my life when a woman gave me an erection.
Okay, time to stop: I've over-shared...

Posted: 9/11/12 at 10:53pmIsn't there a rival Bujold thread here (or maybe it just sprung out of the Coma thread). Obsession is what I think of first when I think of her too--terrific (even knowing Vertigo, I still love it) as is Anne... I recommend the kinda bizarre, but great French film she did very early in her career, Roi de Coeur as well (with Alan Bates, of all people), and Dead Ringers. She was in a couple of Quebecois movies not all that long ago, but aside from seeing her, they didn't make much of an impression on me.
