I purposely said "love" in quotes, I still like her.....but not as much as I used to love her!!
It all started with The Man in the Moon
A beautiful movie with a stellar cast it was her first role and she's only a year older then me.....I was an instant admirer.
On to some of my favorites of the time......
Freeway!
An awesome dark comedy....also starring Kiefer Sutherland and Brooke Shields.....A modern retelling of Little Red Riding Hood.....Reese is dark and wisecracking...she steals the movie!
Overnight Delivery (why I thought I needed to start this thread)
Seriously a fav Reese flick of mine....Paul Rudd and Reese both before they were the huge movie stars they are now........it's funny fast paced....has a great secondary cast....Christine Taylor is hilarious....
Reese has become this big star....and i have to admit in the last few years I could care to see a movie she's in.......it's like she got huge and lost her charm for me? Cheesy/bad romcoms....ekkkk.
Does anyone else have a favorite actor from the 90's they've lost admiration for like me? maybe yours is Reese too? She even had a small awesome part in American Psycho!

I know what you mean, i don´t think that i´ve seen Overnight Delivery though. She was good also in Fear (1996), Pleasantville (1998) and Election (1999)
We talked about Renée Zellweger with JAY LEE few months back, she made some cool and interesting movies in the early/mid 90s but it´s mostly boring romcoms now.

I loved Election and Cruel Intentions.....I thought Pleasantville was ok.
Oh yeah.....Renee is a great example.......although i've only loved her in the Bridget Jones movies ......oooooo you guys may consider those romcoms oooooooo Posted by JAY LEE (Member # 6345) on :
It's not that I consider Bridget Jones rom com..... I just don't consider Bridget Jones at all. No man ever should Posted by Ronnie (Member # 465) on :
muffy, i remember seeing Overnight Delivery and thinking it was cute.
i loved Freeway. haha that movie cracked me up, Reese was great in it!
more newer movies with Reese that i like:
Just Like Heaven Legally Blonde Sweet home Alabama.. probably my favorite Reese movie.
oh and i like her in Man In The Moon. Posted by Pyro (Member # 7658) on :
I remember I really had a thing for Maria Tomei in the 90's. I must have seen, and liked every movie she did in the 90's at least 10 times each. I still like her OK now and all. But I think she did much better movies in the 90's.

Oh oh ....I love Marisa Tomei!!!
More that I love newer stuff she's in....some of my favs....
Slums of Beverly Hills Happy Accidents!....loveeee this one! In the Bedroom The Wrestler...!!
I love Untamed Heart.
I think she's so cute and beautiful at once. She can be funny and dramatic....I really admire her.....can you tell? and what's interesting.....i'm not the biggest fan of her in My Cousin Vinney.....
Posted by Pyro (Member # 7658) on :
Yeah, now that I think about it...I still like Marisa quite a bit today too. So maybe she wasn't the best example I could've picked. It's cool that you like her too though Muffster. I think she's adorable too. How could you not fall in love with a smile like hers?..

haha I changed your mind Pyro!!
If you guys haven't seen Happy Accidents.....it's a really awesome movie imo.
Posted by Pyro (Member # 7658) on :
I have not seen that one yet Muff....but I certainly will hunt it down for a viewing now. Since I'm also a fan of Vincent's, definitely looks like an interesting one.
My favorite films Marisa is in would have to be:
Slums of Beverly Hills Untamed Heart Anger Management What Women Want My Cousin Vinny Oscar
