Back in the 80's there was an attempt to make models into movie stars. One particularly excellent example of this was Fair Game with Cindy Crawford...
And now for two very different takes on the same film from Netflix...
One Star:
I can think of so many bad things to say about this movie, but there really isn't enough room. Let's just say that Cindy Crawford's acting is the worst I have EVER seen. She maintains the same exact expression on her face at all times, whether she is awkwardly running from an explosion in tiny clothes or woodenly slobbering over her costar.
Her mole shows more talent than she does, and deserves a line in the credits.
Five Stars:
Its amazing that Cindy Crawfords acting career didnt take off after this movie. There are shades of some of the greats: Meryl Streep, Glenn Close, Gena Rowlands, Shirley Maclaine, Ellen Burystn, or Sissy Spacek. The range of emotion on display here is exceptional. You really felt her pain and you really felt her fear.
The scene after her apartment gets exploded and her cat dies... Man, you could tell that she was devastated. Also the chemistry between her and Billy Baldwin is electrifying. The sexual tension between the two leads was unbearable. The scene where they were kissing on the train made me explode...literally... in my pants. Theres a glimpse of Cindys side boob, which could have been a body double, but that still works for me. 5 stars.
