In Reply to: Name of the rump posted by Julie Hoffer on December 07, 1998 at 17:38:46:

I don't think it was at all necessary to see so much of her and her having sex with him. I mean, I'm sure we all would have understood her and her position in life without us having to see, you know, that much of her. Not necessary.

I don't think it says much for Christian Slater's character, (Adsel?). The first time temptation knocks on his door, he readily opens it and accepts. Yeah, he'll make a great priest. Hey, it's no worse than what most highly ranking religious men did way back then. Might as well start him young.

Anyways, here's some further comment on that peasant girl. I understand her position in life, she's a poor peasant girl who does what she does in return for food. I understand that part. And she's all thin and bony because she's probably very malnutritioned. And her hair is all mangy and her face is all dirty because she can't exactly take a bath everyday. All of that I understand...but 2 things I don't quite get. First, yeah she's all uneducated and stuff, but does how does that mean she can't talk? She seemed unable to form any kind of words. All she could do was shriek and carry on like a banshee. I guess I would have assumed that she could at least do a little talking. And secondly, if she's this poor, uneducated mangy peasant, then how come her legs are totally shaved and smooth? Someone please explain to me how a poor peasant woman who can't even speak or wash her face could possibly understand how to shave. I thought it was amusing.

I tried to post this once before, but it didn't seem to work, so if you guys get it twice, sorry.

alissa :)
