Vanity Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 Anyone here who has seen the movie "Deal of the century"? I read an interview with Sigourney where she was complaining about here heels. She said something like: -My heels were so steeply high that I could hardly walk! I couldn't walk downhill in one scene because of the heels. I read somewhere that it flopped. Strange because Chevy Chase was also in it. Anyone knows? /Vanity "Vanity is my life and that's my name." I just love High heels.
Rockpup Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 I know the movie, last time I saw it was several years ago. Chevy Chase and Gregory Hines are arms dealers. Probably a cult classic since it was a very funny movie. I guess I have a reason to track it down now. Jim (formerly known as "JimC")
Rockpup Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 I took a quick look last night and I am not sure if they have transfered it to DVD yet. While I remember the movie being funny if it was a flop and not enough of a cult classic it may be a while before it comes up on DVD. I'm still waiting to find either "The Magic Christian" or PCU on DVD. Jim (formerly known as "JimC")
barney15c Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 I've had a look on the net and I think it is only available on VHS and possibly Laserdisc (Not DVD). Also I think it may have bombed according to one of the review headings on Rottentomatoes.com..... "A bomb should have wiped out all the prints of this loser." Its available on US Amazon.com in VHS. Heres a couple of Ms Weaver in heels to be going on with tho' In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king!!!
ulli Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 Wow! Thanks for the pics, barney15c. I find it extremely exciting if women whom I usually don't associate with high heels actually wear some, much more than seeing someone like Kylie Minogue in yet another pair of heels. Like when I saw Jodie Foster on Jay Leno a couple of years ago where she wore a short skirt and strappy sandals with what must have been 5" heels. Took me completely by surprise. If anybody has any pictures of this event, please post them.
Rockpup Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 Thats a terrible review, the movie has one of the all time classic scenes in it. Gregory Hines is backing out of a parking space and dings a corvette, cracking a turn signal on the corvette.. the owner of the corvette and his girlfriend go ballistic on GH's car with a crow bar, smashing every window.. he stands there quietly then pulls a flamethrower out of the back of his car and "touches up'' the corvettes flame paintjob. It may not translate well but it's very funny in the movie (formerly known as "JimC")
