Don't you love Mary Stuart Masterson's transformation from film tomboy to simply beautiful woman in NINE?

I loved her Luisa Contini.
Fragile but strong as steel.
Her legs - gorgeous!
What beautiful skin!

Saw her only last night as a little girl playing opposite her real life dad Pete Masterson in the original (and best) THE STEPFORD WIVES.
And her mum's legs weren't bad either!

I adored her as Luisa Contini. Everybody made such a big fuss over Jane Krakowski, who was very good, but MSM should've won the Tony. A raw, vulnerable performance that simply blew me away. In my humble opinion, the best Luisa ever.

Oy, I've been a fan of hers since SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL. That was in what, 1986?

I adored her in NINE. Her songs were the best in the show. I was amazed she had such a glorious singing voice. I've heard talk of them doing a film of NINE and I would hope she gets to do it.

I completely agree. She is so small and fragile looking in person.

OMG! Matt_G!!!! NINE, The Movie!
That is the best news I've heard in ages!

MSM is a tomboy who has become a sensuous woman.

I've loved her ever since Fried Green Tomatoes - such a fine young actress.

Ditto the Fried Green Tomatoes...her and Mary-Louise Parker were such revelations in that movie. I love it.

She totally broke my heart in NINE - she commanded that stage. I was so angry when she didn't win the Tony.

with her mom such a belter, i guess she comes by it naturally, but i was unprepared for what a rich and supple sound her voice had. She continues to amaze on the screen...loved her "arc" on LAW & ORDER:SVU. Wasn't she also in the Kennedy Center Williams plays this past summer? i know she's been doing at least one West End play. But she needs to do another musical in NYC!

I agree with Fried Green Tomatoes as my favorite MSM film. She did do a play at the Kennedy Center this summer. She played Maggie in CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF. I really wanted to see it, but I never got the chance.

I saw her in "Some Kind Of Wonderful" and had a huge crush on her, and then I saw "Nine" and sat in the front row and I thought her face looked familiar and her name sounded familiar and I realized it was her! Mary Stuart Masterson is my definition of gorgeous.

[TxTwoStep]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:04pm

howsembout a musical of FRIED GREEN TOMATOES starring both MSM (in any role she wants) and her mom (Carlin Glynn) probably in the Jessica Tandy role?!?!?

Any producers reading this board and interested, please PM me (you never know, it could happen)....

I love her!

Good choice, Glebb.

(by the way, are you interested in a movie version of NINE? )

[Glebb]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:24pm

Da!

[NYadgal]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:25pm

Gee, it was hard to figure out how you feel about it...

shes totally brilliant on the Nine CD

[Glebb]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:26pm

Did you see the revival more than once?
I only saw it twice.

[NYadgal]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:26pm

Yes. I did see it more than once.

I saw it a number of times. I was VERY lucky!

[Glebb]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:27pm

Too bad I didn't know you back then.
We could have seen it together.

[NYadgal]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:28pm

That would have made it perfect!

...promise we'll go see the movie together.

[Glebb]

Posted: 4/4/05 at 10:30pm

For sure.
I think the revival of NINE is the reason I rarely go to movies these days but the movie NINE would bring me back in.
