"Red Silk"

Red Silk (1999) is a Jess Franco crime comedy staring Lina Romay and Christie Levin as exotic dancers/private detectives who get envolved in far more than they bargained for including major art theft, kidnapping and blackmail. Mostly, however, they spend most of the film wearing nothing at all. Lina, who is Mrs. Jess Franco, has 115 acting credits at IMDb, and currently has one in pre-production. This was filmed not long after her successful bout with cancer, hence the short hair. Both she and Levin show full frontal and rear nudity through most of the film, which is shot in good light throughout.

The dubbed English was done by voice actors who clearly had trouble pronouncing English words, making the film a little hard to follow. I am guessing it would be even funnier in Spanish. Franco, now 74, is still going strong, and has another film in pre-production, again staring his wife. 20 IMDb readers have this at 4.9, but the only comment at IMDb loved the film. The nudity is certainly top notch, and the film doesn't even begin to take itself seriously, which is a good thing. As a Jess Franco nudie, this is a C+, as one of his more enjoyable ones.

    • The yellow asterisks indicate that I wrote the review, and am deluded into thinking it includes humor.
    • If there is a white asterisk, it means that there isn't any significant humor, but I inexplicably determined there might be something else of interest.
    • A blue asterisk indicates the review is written by Tuna (or Junior or Brainscan, or somebody else besides me)
    • If there is no asterisk, I wrote it, but am too ashamed to admit it.

    Subject: Oddball request - Christine Baranski
    Scoops,
    The quirky caper comedy "Crackers" (1984) featured a young Christine Baranski as a meter maid who moonlighted as a hooker with a vivid sexual imagination. Apparently this role included Baranski stripping down a couple of times to sexy lingerie. If anyone could get their hands on this movie and make some caps, I'd be very grateful. The challenge....it's only on VHS and is currently out of print.

    Thanks,
    3finger

    MICHAEL JACKSON TRIAL UPDATE
    Did She Molest Any Children? - In testimony experts say hurt Michael Jackson's prosecution, his accuser's mom spent two days on the stand sobbing, snapping her fingers, putting on a German accent, arguing with Jackson's attorney, crying "Don't judge me!" and generally appearing wildly unstable.

  • She let her kid sleep in Michael Jackson's bed! Of COURSE, she's wildly unstable!
  • Michael has done all the same things, except he can't do a German accent.


    STAR PERKS DRIVING UP ENTERTAINMENT COSTS
    Those Are Just The Desperate Housewives - Entertainment Weekly reports that as TV viewing and movie ticket and CD sales fall, top stars' demands for perks are skyrocketing: luxury trailers, private jets just for their luggage, $7,000-a-day stylists, $50 French candles for their dressing rooms, and $150,000 gift bags. One TV star demanded the water supply to his trailer be blessed by a shaman. But the studio did let a TV star have a tantrum rather than agree to helicopter her to work every day. EW estimates that star perks now comprise 5 percent of production costs, so when you buy a movie ticket or CD, you're paying 50 cents to a dollar for things like flying the star's dog First Class.

  • Well, at least, the dog might deserve it.
  • They should demand that the studios pay geneticists to develop flying dogs for them.
  • Michael Jackson's makeup artist gets $7,000 a day, but she earns every penny.
  • They also demand private jets to fly them to political rallies where they can speak for the common man.
  • Good thing the water supply to the trailer was blessed, because all the stockholders were peeing in it.
