Glad you liked it... it's a fav of MINE... Whenever I mention the movie, many people have said "Huh?" They've never heard of it.

Interesting side note (since you mentioned the Matrix) some of the rooftop set pieces from Dark City were used in the opening Trinity escape sequence from The Matrix (1st one)

Cheers, Doc.

PS, the transfer is SO good, you can see Connelly's mustache in a few scenes... an unfortunate side effect of 1080p
Yea, I noticed the slight mustache. Her attractiveness level went down a lot. Girls need to know that that is such a turn-off.

She is really a man. One of those hairy chicks you know. However, I thought her voice suited the movie very very well. Very jazz style feel to it. Maybe I need to watch the director's cut again for the added vocal track.

Doesn't stop me from thinking she's hot as the sun.

Hear that Jen?... come on over.

Um, definitely not a man... If so, then I'm gonna start switch hitting... just remember - not all body hair's bad... reminds us we're all dirty little animals that just want to eat, sleep, and .....? Besides - she IS a sexy beast!


The theatrical release had a dubbed vocal track, the directors cut vocal track is very flat with poor tone and out of tune - but again... on purpose! The theatrical cut has a better voice, but is so obviously not Jennifer's it was a glaring discombobulation that always annoyed me...

Don't get too firmly caught up with her. Celebrities are....human. No difference from me and you.

She is just one of those hairy females. Maybe she fixed herself (hopefully on a regular basis). I could almost see some black arm hairs with that picture, but I am not sure.

Can't really go based on photo-shoots online. Try to find her on the streets or something and get a glimpse of how hairy she is for us.
