Wild Side (1995)
you'll find this under "closet classics" in my XXX-files
3 March 2000
Ok, so it's a trashy soft-porn B-flick. I still like it. I got my first eyeful of Anne Heche (full frontal and backal--thx, Dilbert) plus more of Joan Chen, a fave since Twin Peaks. What more could you want? Walken gets a little weird...surprised? Isn't that why we love/hate him so? And Steven Bauer sure can play a jerk, the big hunky galoot. I've liked him since "Thief of Hearts."

The soundtrack is a bonus with a lush groove to it. I'd love to see the director's cut which sounds much more divine than the somewhat annoying cable version, but until then I'll have my finger poised confidently over my remote's FF button so I can get to the good stuff. Btw, Anne's performance reminds me of a young Bette Davis with her nervous fidgeting and self-conscious sashaying. Anyone else see it besides me? Just curious...maybe <grin>.
