I finally saw Halloween (1). Not too bad. I used to really enjoy a Fish Called Wanda. Maybe it would still be good.

Halloween is my choice.

Although my favorite Jamie Lee Curtis SCENE comes from True Lies.

Knives Out is her best movie Halloween is the best one she starred in, as the lead.

And Professor check her out in Perfect.

In Trading Places she reveals her beautiful chest and I've always loved Halloween, also a fan of True Lies. Thought she has had a nice comeback this year with the fun Knives Out and in her remake of Halloween. She is one cool lady.

Wanda has been on cable lately, and it holds up for me.

I saw Trading Places not too long ago. It holds up almost as well, although Aykroyd’s performance is a tad hammy. Years ago, I read an interview where JLC said she walked into a party and they had her nude scene freeze-framed on several TVs, and that led her to stop doing them.

I do want to see Knives Out - I’d hoped to do it on this vacation, but we never got there.

She's married to Christopher Guest? I did not know this.

For how long has this been going on?

They've been married a long time, since the 80s.

"Trading Places" has really held up. (Many 80's comedies, that I once remembered fondly, have not.)

I remember Curtis saying in an interview at the time that part of the reason she was unable to understand the fuss over her nude scenes is that both of them, combined, lasted exactly six seconds.

I've, er, gone back to the DVD and verified this. As indelible as they are, six seconds is pretty much all there is.

Slow motion, freeze frame, and fond memories just make them seem longer. :thumbsup:

A relative of mine met her at a business function and they got to hang out for a bit. Per my relative, Jamie was one cool lady indeed.

Went with True Lies. I think she did a great job in that.
