Her Misery is really quite a classic early 90's performance to be remembered and it saddens me that she doesn't get as much notice either for her forceful Dolores Claiborne. It doesn't really make much sense actually.

It's my favorite, too. Although, Shawshank is right up there! My favorite of the TV stuff is Storm of the Century.

I absolutely hate that movie, but her performance in it is simply spectacular.

Kathy gave an utterly unforgettable performance.
I also got a kick out of this lady:

I love this movie, and Bates's performance. Caan was great, too.

One of the successful "King" movies. Others include: Salem's Lot, Carrie, The Shining, Creepshow, Cujo, It (I don't care, it scared me!), Shawshank, Night Flier (no one's seen this! scary ****!), Dark Half, Dolores Clairborne, and Green Mile.

Secret Window wasn't bad, and featured an inspired performance by Depp.

Imagine how VERY different the movie woulda been if the original person they wanted to play Annie Wilkes had accepted it!

I love Bette, but I think she is ALL WRONG for that part, and am glad that she declined.

(actually ON topic, I wonder why they havent made a film of Rose Madder....I liked that book alot and it would be so visual.)

[Borstalboy]

Posted: 5/22/07 at 11:40am

No, but Eli Roth is going to do CELL.

Rose Madder is a great book, if a bit schizo.

I would love to see Bag of Bones done as well.
