"The Postman Always Rings Twice" (1981)

The Postman Always Rings Twice (1981) is the second attempt to bring the depression era classic novel by James M. Caine to the screen. The first, in 1946, was made during a pro censorship pendulum swing, making it impossible to do justice to the novel. For this reason, the director doesn't think of this as a remake, but rather as a proper interpretation. I, for one agree. Jessica Lange plays the waitress/cook/wife of a Greek restaurant and filling station owner, who is trapped in a loveless marriage. Jack Nicholson is a drifter and petty swindler who wanders through to con them out of a free meal. The Greek owner sees him as a mechanic for his station, and, when Jack sees Jessica, he agrees.

It isn't long before Jack and Jessica find exactly what they want in a heated sexual encounter on the kitchen table. There are a few problems with the romance. First, there is the matter of a husband. Second, Nicholson isn't really the husband type. After several abortive attempts to run off together, Nicholson and Lange plot to kill her husband. There are many twists and turns from there.

Maltin hates this film, at 1 1/2 stars. He does admit that the violent sex between Nicholson and Lange is very hot, and that seems to be one of his objections. There are no other English language reviews available. I enjoyed this film at lot. It was well-shot, and the performances were uniformly excellent. The chemistry was good between Nicholson and Lange, and Anjelica Huston plays a small role as a lion tamer whom Nicholson sleeps with.

Huston shows her left breast and nipple from the side. Lange shows only see through and pokies, but her sex scenes ignite the screen anyway. This is more of a character driven drama than anything else. Using that as a genre, I give it a C+.

    New to DVD

    Bummers. (Some better movies came out today - Dancer in the Dark, The Tao of Steve, and Remember the Titans, but I worked on nudity first. I'll get to the others in a bit.)

    Dennis Hopper in another grade-c, this time, The Apostate. It took two years just to get this one to video. I watched it on VHS, but there is a DVD, and I'll get a copy just for the nudity, which is great. Two beauitiful women, stark naked in clear light for prolonged periods. As for the movie, it's a bummer, dudes. While you wait for DVD caps, here are some VHS samples.

    The Jude Law new-age vampire film, The Wisdom of Crocodiles. As I thought, the widescreen version does show Elina Lowensohn's breasts. She is a doll. She speaks some garbled, mangled language which sounds something like English, and I had to watch her scenes with the close-captioning for the hearing impaired, but she looks like Audrey Hepburn with a more feminine body, and that's a good thing.

    • Elina Lowensohn (1, 2, 3)

    Graphic Response
  • Anne Parillaud, breast exposure in loves scenes with a Baldwin. Vidcaps from the ultra-lame, wanna-be psycho thriller "Shattered Image" (1998). A great cure for insomnia.
  • Brenda Bakke, topless in "Death Spa" (1988).
  • Brainscan
    If I could get the funny little symbols on this keyboard to make the figure of a man bowing very deeply I would do it for Tuna. A couple of weeks ago there was Emerald Forest, the el primo natural T & A movie of all time, and then on Monday. Reform School Girls! Howard Hughes watched Ice Station Zebra every day for years on end, and if I went just a bit more reclusive I would watch RSG twice a day. What's it got: mega shower babes, uber-cutie Linda Carol and even some celeb nudity in Wendy O. Tuna, dude, you are a stud, One request: more RSG caps.

    IMHO Reform School Girls has the second best shower/locker room scene of all time. On the Brainscan list are Carrie, Invisible Maniac, Savage Streets (if'n you haven't seen that 25 second/12 girl clip you just haven't lived) and the A-number one scene with both shower and locker room: Private School for Girls.

    So what, other than bullshit, do I have to offer today. Appropriately enough: vidcaps. First a few collages of my own from raw caps I had sitting on the hard drive. Tis Josephine Jacqueline Jones, former beauty queen in Black Venus. UC99 capped this treasure a while back but JJ's majestic arse deserved even greater attention. The largest cap is a montage made of pieces in a slow scan from head to toe and the second woman in the last collage is French babe and Brainscan cult figure, Florence Guerin. Damn, boys, but ain't life good.

  • Josephine Jacqueline Jones (1, 2, 3, 4)

    The other collages are made from Tuna and Johnny Web caps. They include:

  • Aarika Wells
  • Angela Todd
  • Aurelie Meriel
  • Bobby Tyler
  • Kimberly Rowe

    The last one today is a collage made of Athena Massey from caps posted anonymously on usenet. Me thinks it's from Poison Ivy 3.

  • Scorpion
    Almost all of today's goodies are scenes from "Erotic Possessions" (2000)

    Shauna O'Brien
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

    Did someone order the über-sized robo-hooters? Here they are, plus some frontal nudity as well in several sex scenes. Link #3 features a bath tub scene that introduces a brand new way to get off using porno films.

    Amber Newman Here's amber having sex in a variety of positions.

    Griffin Drew Griffin's turn to get it on.

    Shauna and Amber As a general Skinemax rule, at least two women must have a minimum of one lesbian scene. But in the really fun ones...All of the ladies get it on!

    Shauna and Griffin Shauna's character apparently can't get enough of men or women.

    Griffin and Amber One more lesbian scene.

    Julie Strain Finally, 'caps from a different movie. These belong with yesterday's feature, "Sunset Heat".

    Miaou
    Julie Depardieu Well, I guess you can't talk about French nudity without eventually running into Gérard Depardieu. Or in this case, his offspring. In America it's Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, I think in France it must be Six degrés de Gérard Depardieu. Anyway...full frontal vidcaps from "L'Examen de minuit" (1998).

    Marie-Christine Descouard
    (1, 2, 3, 4)

    Topless, rear, and frontal nudity in scenes from 1981's "Le Roi des cons".

    and ...
    Helena Christensen
    (1, 2)

    Two B&Ws of the lovely Helena topless.

    Phaedra Hoste
    (1, 2, 3, 4)
    Four B&Ws of the Belgian TV presenter and model.
    #1 and #2 are 'hands holding goodies' poses
    #3 is almost full frontal (and quite nice)
    #4 is a nice topless pose

    Jennifer Connelly Another of Akira's jumbo 'caps from "Inventing the Abbotts".

    Linda Carol A gorgeous (and huge) collage of Linda and her friends nekkid in scenes from "Reform School Girls".

    Britney Spears I know the Britney fans will love this vidcap from one of her videos. Thanks to Freakie.

    Maruschka Detmers The Dutch babe topless in scenes from the Dolph Lundgren, straight-to-video movie "The Shooter". Vidcaps by Scanman.

    Justina Vail A ZonononZor Tribute collage, featuring Justina topless from the Pam Anderson movie "Naked Souls", plus a few other nice non-nude images.
