Mulholland Dr. is great, the Ring is quite good and Tank Girl is waaaaay underrated.

But Le Divorce looked downright evil, and I'm not sure I've seen her in anything else.

xpost: Are you saying Naomi Watts is hung like a horse?

thread over

― err, Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:30 (twenty-two years ago)

i once posted naomi watts in the "who do you fancy?" thread. she's a very attractive lady and a very talented actress. my favourite naomi watts moments are in mullholland drive: she rehearses the scene for her audition with rita, but then she goes to the audition and acts out a completely different, highly seductive take on it. the second one is such a weird scene, she's so wide-eyed and naive up until then. i remember me and my g/f watched that film, and when she woke up i tried to explain what happened in that scene, and she just thought it sounded silly - but it's really powerful when you watch it.

um i typed that up wrong cos i've been drinking - i meant to mention that my g/f fell asleep for some of it, and missed that great scene.

― weasel diesel (K1l14n), Saturday, 17 January 2004 23:35 (twenty-two years ago)

She was in Tank Girl??

― jaymc (jaymc), Saturday, 17 January 2004 23:47 (twenty-two years ago)

she was Jet Girl! I was totally smitten when I first saw it ...

― zaxxon25 (zaxxon25), Saturday, 17 January 2004 23:51 (twenty-two years ago)

She's 34. I like that about acting, that you can get your big break at any age. (Like 34 is old)

― Aaron A., Sunday, 18 January 2004 01:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey, I'm 34! That's it, I'm calling Jerry Bruckheimer tomorrow.

I love Naomi Watts, mostly for Mullholland Drive (I guarantee you that audition scene is already mandatory viewing in drama and film studies classes the world over -- which is too bad, really, takes the fun out of it), although she's also the best thing about 21 Grams (deeply flawed movie, but man, she's painful to watch -- which is the whole point). I was less impressed with The Ring, but it wasn't her fault. It was just that the whole thing was so slick and relentlessly dour.

She reminds me of Cate Blanchett a little, except that you never make the mistake of thinking Blanchett is weak or lost, while Watts hides her strength until something triggers it and, whammo. I think she's fascinating.

Hotter in Tank Girl, when she gets to use her accent.

you wish

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 18 January 2004 09:02 (twenty-two years ago)

haha thank you milo.

I don't usually fancy any actresses (ppl in real life are much more fanciable). The only film I watched her in was 'the ring' remake, which was very good (and I've seen the japanese version and 'ring II') and her being in it was one reason.

Thought she was about 27/28. 34 is a very hot number.

sorry to be boring :...(

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 18 January 2004 09:06 (twenty-two years ago)

i want to see a photo of her in not-blond form.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 18 January 2004 09:13 (twenty-two years ago)

and if i don'ty like her don't take my shit seriously yo. i only like fat chicks.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 18 January 2004 09:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I think she's much hotter on the screen, photos are so dud bcz they just freeze you. As someone who likes david lynch I can't believe I haven't seen mullholland drive yet. I must do this soon.

I used to fancy her when she was in a wheelchair in Home & Away but I don't fancy her much anymore. I don't think this makes me sick. She's a very good actress.

― N. (nickdastoor), Sunday, 18 January 2004 13:37 (twenty-two years ago)

I love how she always looks like she's got nuts in her mouth. If you squeezed her face I bet you'd get some weird, wonderful facial girl-cum.

― Le Coq (DarrenK), Sunday, 18 January 2004 16:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I think she's pretty but have you ever noticed her hands? She has claw-like old lady hands which looks weird on a younger person. I was very distracted by this when I watched The Ring.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 18 January 2004 17:58 (twenty-two years ago)

she is so unbelieveably hot and electrifying when she is allowed but i have made up my mind to not see that new one 21 grams which looks like exactly the kind of bullshit that will leave me moping for a week besides the title is based on a bit of made-up nonsense and it's difficult to sustain self-importance in the face of THAT without being laughed at so hahaha

― amateur!st (amateurist), Monday, 19 January 2004 10:25 (twenty-two years ago)

i was reading some old maxim in the john at work the other day and this scientist apparently did some kind of study of ratios and proportions or other science shit and found out that liz hurley had the world's most perfect face based on symmetry or something.

Change it again and she's Nicole Kidman, before Nicole Kidman went nuts on plastic surgery and turned into Jack Nicholson.

I have just coughed up a gin and tonic for laughing so hard.

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 23:51 (twenty years ago)

surgically enhanced or otherwise, she's begun to make a career of playing actresses, no?

-mulholland drive
-i heart huckabees
-ellie parker
-king kong

and the lynch connection, esp. per the famous casting scene, is no accident--she's one of them superemoters, like, say, laura dern. unsurprisingly, the cavalcade of reaction shots that comprised her "part" in king kong had me exhausted inside an hour. (not really her fault, but saw it coming.)

― those, Tuesday, 3 January 2006 23:58 (twenty years ago)

What the fuck kind of scientist sits around all day jerking off to pix of Liz Hurley to write an article about her symmetry? That's not really science, even with my lame ass definition of science.

i really don't think that looks photoshopped. it's just the hunched shoulders... i suppose the resulting disappearance of her neck could lead one to believe the head had been pasted on.

Fun fact: Her father, Peter Watts, was a roadie for Pink Floyd, and it is his creepy laughter you hear all over Dark Side of the Moon. He later died of a heroin overdose.

It's not just the hunched shoulders, it's also the lighting, and the way the t-shirt is kind of unnaturally...nipped in in weird spots. It's a bad, obvious photoshop job. Though if that was the point then so be it!

Also wtf is that French magazine on??! I love completely inexplicable magazine covers.
