Great movie too. That woman has amazing eyes when she smiles and great face structure. So pretty.

Edit: Claire Forlani. Apparently escaped Weinstein 5 times too.

Now it makes so much sense. She had so much screen presence and was pretty good in this movie, and just… yeah, no roles or anything. Never thought of that.

I recently rewatched MJB and I thought she was genuinely great in it. Her acting was so on point with all of her scenes. And yeah, she's frickin' gorgeous lol.

Yes. But I would say she's more striking than beautiful.

That was my nickname in high school. I took a lot of balls, straight down my gutter.

She was awful in that, and it’s the only thing I’ve ever seen her in, so it’s the only thing on which I have to judge her acting abilities.

I read the New Yorker article about Weinstein. One of the few satisfying things to happen in the 2020s.

Holy shit! I've never seen the movie, but the moment you described her the way you did my first thought was, "Sounds like Claire Forlani."
