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!

Posted: 4/3/05 at 12:55pmI 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.

Posted: 4/3/05 at 2:27pmI 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.

Posted: 4/3/05 at 5:16pmI've loved her ever since Fried Green Tomatoes - such a fine young actress.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!"
Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Posted: 4/3/05 at 6:33pmDitto the Fried Green Tomatoes...her and Mary-Louise Parker were such revelations in that movie. I love it.

Posted: 4/3/05 at 6:38pmShe totally broke my heart in NINE - she commanded that stage. I was so angry when she didn't win the Tony.

Posted: 4/3/05 at 8:31pmwith 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!

Posted: 4/3/05 at 11:24pmI 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.
#12re: Mary Stuart Masterson
Posted: 4/4/05 at 12:07amI 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.

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)....

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.
