Fatal Attraction (Special Collector's Edition) description
The date movie of the late 1980s, this had everyone arguing in the aisles. Does Michael Douglas deserve the unwanted attention he and his family are receiving at the hands of loony stalker Glenn Close? After a weekend extramarital affair with colleague Close, he returns home to wife Anne Archer, and Close becomes progressively angrier. You might even say she is boiling bunny mad. Directed by Adrian Lyne, this is not your average thriller, as it garnered six Academy Award nominations. The plot is too obvious, but the dialogue rings true and the intense performances hold the story together. Anne Archer deserves kudos for side-stepping cliché as the strong but frightened wife, and Close is a scream as she chews up the scenery. The film's original ending, which was reshot after poor preview screenings, has been added to the video release. --Rochelle O'Gorman |

One Night Stand = Forever...

| Wow! I sure remember this one! I saw it at the theatre in '87 and knew it would be a sensation. Why? Because it strikes right at the heart of human frailty, error, and regret. How many people sat and judged Dan Gallagher (Michael Douglas) for his sin / stupidity, while being guilty of similar things themselves? I sure did! I smugly told my friends that "If I had Ann Archer at home, I'd never leave the house!" Well, I was young, dumb, and unmarried. And what about Alex Forest (Glenn Close)? Is she just the sinister seductress turned total nutjob, or a victim of Gallagher's arrogant exploitation and dismissal? Hmmm. I like FATAL ATTRACTION because it's more than a mere clever thriller. It forces the viewer to ask questions that are uncomfortable. It's no wonder that this film became a full-blown phenomenon. Adrian Lyne (Jacob's Ladder) tapped into our psyches by invading our private lives. I still squirm during Gallagher's confession to his wife! Highly recommended... |
