Sexiest performance ever.
"You're not too smart, are you? I like that in a man".
shoulda won the Oscar that year. wasn't even nominated. For shame!
Role model.
I was curious to see what happened that year, so I read the wikipedia article. Janet Maslin panned Kathleen Turner and called her a soap opera actress! How did she dare!
This is so strange because she's clearly the best English-language performance of that year, followed by a close Diane Keaton and nobody else.
The only performance of that year that is actually better wouldn't have a shot in a million years, Isabelle Adjani in Possession.
I think my best actress list would go like that:
Isabelle Adjani - Possession - Gold
Kathleen Turner - Body Heat - Silver
Fernanda Montenegro - They Don't Wear Black-Tie - Bronze
Fanny Ardant - The Woman Next Door
Diane Keaton - Reds
I like Hepburn in On Golden Pond, but come on!
This is one of the SEXIEST performances in the history of film. God she was SCORCHING in this!
