Christopher Guest is a lucky bastard. I’m amazed at the sensual force certain women hit me with. I’m watching TV and I usually mute commercials. Since I’m in the ad agency biz…I sometimes need to insulate myself from the concept-pitch-creative madness of what I do day in day out……but there she was.
I can’t think of another woman on the face of the earth who has aged into such amazing hotness. Jamie was a tad strong-featured for my tastes when she was younger. However she hooked me with her spunk, obvious intelligence while the glorious boobage of “Trading Sapces” made her a freeze-frame icon for a generation of harmless pervs like myself.
In “A Fish Called Wanda” I first marveled at her more than holding her own with Kline and Cleese and then the thought ambled through my brainpan…is she hotter than she used to be? When she did “True Lies” again….marvelous deadpan comic timing. And we get to the transformation/seduction scene where she rips off part of her dress to transform herself into a femme fatale. I so wanted her….and not in a nice way.
And then there she is pitching yogurt. Hair’s a little gray, wearing cute specs…sensible Mom clothing but her sexiness just oozes off the screen. I have standards and refuse to use a yogurt commercial as a springboard for masturbatory riffs of wonder…but…oh, my God …are we ever graced with a lovely, talented sexy lass in Miss Jamie.
I apologize for a lack of carnal mutterings…I just like her, simply put.
