I've had a few episodes on in the background while working on stuff. It was reasonably entertaining. However, I thought MEM was miscast.balyienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13785839636620293326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074838946965393539.post-41677860595008620002016-12-29T21:08:08.550-08:002016-12-29T21:08:08.550-08:00I feel like I was around this movie a lot, but nev...I feel like I was around this movie a lot, but never watched it. Like I was old enough when it came out that a lot of people saw it, because we were of autonomous movie-going age, but I myself never saw it. I think it was on cable a lot too, so it might have been on in the background a lot when I was at people's houses who had movie channels.<br /><br />Also Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. All over the place in the late 80s. And then what happened to her? IMDB (who helpfully tells us her parents were of Italian descent) says she's doing TV, currently the show Limitleess. She did a couple of seasons of Grimm, too. Which probably means she spent some time in Portland.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07967372439743853589noreply@blogger.com
