I saw her name in the credits, what did she actually do?
What a slow movie.

She was one of the Hookers in the "Come Together" number

According to imdb.com, she was a "Hooker". So I'm assuming it's just a cameo in "Come Together".

I didn't mind the pace that much, although it was a little long for my taste, nothing major though. It's a little better time wise the second time.

outdamnwench, was she the one who walked around the back of the car?
Lilias was a highlight.
Were all the Leads using their own voices?
I was impressed with the vocals.

Yes, they were all singing, but some of them were helped out in the recording studio, but not all of them.

I think the movie lost it when Bono stepped in. It just sort of stopped - action wise - and verred to this weird area, and then back again.

The stuff between the glorious Songs was making me eat more popcorn, but there was some great singing.

Bill Irwin played Lucy's uncle, Linda Emond played her mother.

Curtis Holbrook, Matt Caplan, and John Jeffrey Martin were the dorm stoners

Carol Woods was the Gospel singer at the funeral.

Harry Lennix was the army sergeant


And those were just half the people I recognized.

Oh I KNEW I reconized her!

There have been alot of threads about this already but yes, she was the white hooker in Come Together, best scene/song in the film , IMO. I'll also say here again, I would have rather seen her play Sadie. Those of you who missed Orfeh as Janis Joplin wouldn't understand and those who did will agree.

[Grand Motel]

I did and I agree.

Spencer Liff is in Cry Baby now.

CPD- You will appreciate that he spends half of the show shirtless.

Deidre played another hooker, you could pick her out right away.

I wanna know where you see Noah W. in that movie...

[Brave Sir Robin2]

Posted: 11/18/07 at 9:42pm

I dpotted Deidre. I thought the film was iffy and the plot line was unrealistic.

"I think the movie lost it when Bono stepped in. It just sort of stopped - action wise - and verred to this weird area, and then back again."

I agree completley.

You could easily spot Orfeh, Dierdre Goodwin and Antonique Smith in the Come Together scene but I'm with boq, where were many of the others mentioned?

[ruprecht]

Posted: 11/19/07 at 3:29pm

In the special deleted scene section of the inevitable DVD release? :)

Along with the words "directors cut" splashed all over the cover of the Dvd.

As stated previously Orfeh, Antonique, and Deidre are in the "hooker scene". Also in that scene are Yassmin Alers and
Tracy Nicole Chapman. Matt Caplan and Curtis Holbrook are in the dorm scene that becomes "A Little Help From My Friends". During that scene they go to a bar where Aisha DeHaas plays a barmaid.

Bill Irwin is the Max and Lucy's uncle in the Thanksgiving scene in Ohio. Logan Marshall Green played Paco and had a fairly prominent part in the 2nd half of the movie. Destan and Saycon were most noticeably in the "All You Need Is Love" scene at the end of the movie. I believe they're in the background on the right.

Luther Creek was on the bus with Dr.Robert (Bono) during the "I am the Walrus" scene and has a couple lines after.

Noah said his part was cut, but I think I saw him in the scene where Jude is in jail. I think he was the last person to be bailed out before Jude's dad comes.

I couldn't find Nikki or Nicole (the latter I was specifically looking for), but my friend said she saw Nikki in a dark wig somewhere.

Thanks, that's research for you.
