All I remember is how insanely attractive Natascha McElhone was in that film.

Bonus points for being one of Viola Davis's early roles.

Casting a woman in that role is such an embarrassing whiff on subtext in the original movie, and ironically, it's specifically feminist subtext

The way Davis plays that character is also just an awful choice and makes it seem like she's hysterical and irrational
