i love james spader that why i sit through this movie not once ( year ago ) and but twice ( very recently ) . sure and he get sort of doughy in recent year and and be now in that awful tv show and but in this movie he be just so damn appeal represent the most expressive eye and those succulent lip . yum . susan sarandon and otoh and be way overrate a both an actress and a sex symbol . first and she not at all attractive physically . the big and baggy bug eye bother me most . i find her character repulsive and crude and pathetic and incredibly annoy . her crackle laugh in the bar scene make me so want to smack her . her desperate trapping of him at the bar be painful to watch . how sad that she have to get him plastered and dupe him into come home with her . then and she just about rape him . he resist and but later decide it will take less energy to just let her have her way with him . he seem disgusted with her the morning after and and leave callously and say he would not be back yet and be to believe that within the next day he become smitten with her and discover he can not live without her . please . age be not the issue . she crude and classless and unlikeable and a filthy slob and a drunk and a disgusting chain smoker and yet this handsome and wealthy and young and successful and opera loving and and impeccably neat catch fall hopelessly in love with her . absurd . it jam spader weren not in it and this movie would have get a 10 .
