Today I'd rather be...
... hugging a tree with Hart Bochner.
Supergirl is turning 30 today, you guys!
I know everybody maintains this movie is awful but oh my god I love it so. That said, no offense to Helen Slater but if I'm gonna write about Supergirl I'm gonna write about Hart Bochner (previous example) as the hunky dude-in-distress or I'm gonna write about Faye Dunaway.
Gloriously ridiculous Faye Dunaway camping it up like nobody's business as the gloriously ridiculous villainess Selena. In fact I think we oughta do a list in honor of thirty gloriously ridiculous years of Selena, that's what I think. I give you...
The Five Stages of Eye-Acting

Love that movie! It’s so bad it’s good. Happy Birthday Supergirl!
ReplyDeleteOveracting. Cheesy graphics. It's basically a cartoon. I love it!
ReplyDeleteFavorite scene:
ReplyDeleteFaye Dunaway: "Power of Shadow, from a dark star, reveal to me my enemy, wherever she... (pause) are."
Brenda Vaccaro: "Oh that's awful."
Or something like that. I might have gotten a word or two wrong. ;)
And does anyone have that nude centerfold of Hart Bochner in the bathtub that he did for Cosmopolitan? There were strategically-placed soap suds but man that got me through many a teenage fantasy...
George - I have never seen this picture, and as I searched everywhere online and I couldn't find it! I MUST FIND IT!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've been looking for it without much success. :/
ReplyDeleteHart Bochner looked so much like Richard Gere then.
ReplyDeleteFaye Dunaway was absolutely gorgeous in this as always
