OT: Viggo
Jane Blake
Hi, I'm a lurker up here in beautiful Victoria BC Canada and couldn't
help but add my favourite Viggo movie:
GI Jane. He plays a tough with a sensitive side (reads D.H. Lawrence
poetry on screen) Master Command Chief of a Navy Seal type training camp
and Demi Moore plays the first woman to go through the very tough
training, complete of course with sexism etc. It's a great movie without
**too** much violence and has Crissy Hines singing in it for the added
chick flick flavour. Enjoy! P.S. This is a great list, I enjoy reading
your emails. Brightest blessings, Jane.

I've never seen that movie, though I think it might be based on the life of
the granddaughter of my neighbor Mrs. Carter, who also had a letter (I got to
hold it <g>) from Mother Teresa. She was a very cool neighbor, and her
granddaughter was either the first female to graduate the naval academy or the first
seal or something.
Another Viggo Mortensen part is in one of my very favorite movies, Crimson
Tide. He's in the first scene, and he's throughout but his character is very
quiet and hardly movies. His big actions are ironing a shirt and smoking a
cigarette. You might have seen the movie and not recogized him because he's
relatively hairless. He plays "Ops" who is being told "push the button" and
"don't push the button" in the crucial scene.
When we first saw that movie it inspired me to watch a bunch of submarine
movies. They're especially interesting, and while they have a kind of tension
and reality in common they made a good set viewings. Submarine-movie unit.
Some were shared with others in my family but I was the only one who watched all
of them.
Crimson Tide. Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman, with half a dozen
excellent supporting actors.
