I know that, in one scene at least, they're in the room at the same time.

Channing Tatum is supposedly in that version, but I refuse to watch it because 1)Mr. Cruise and 2)IMDB says he plays Boy in Church (uncreditied).

Even meeting the first level of the Bechdel test (Has two women) is amazing for a 50s sci-fi movie.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07967372439743853589noreply@blogger.com
