Am I going mad...


... Or is she in Swing Vote?

Check out the trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/touchstone/swingvote/medium.html

About 3/4's in, the woman saying "You used to stand for something". I'd swear thats her, or someone who looks exactly like her.

I'm just confused because its not listed on her filmography.

I think you're right. It looked and sounded like her. But it doesn't seem she's credited with it on her IMDB profile.....hmmmmmmm

I thought the same thing and was surprised it wasn't listed here. But I am SURE it is her. It couldn't be anyone else.

Yeah, that's her! I haven't heard of this movie till now but after seeing Nana is in it and the trailer was quite good too, I'll have to watch it. :)

"From StarTrek.com:

We have learned that Nana Visitor has been cast and has already shot her scenes for a film that will be very timely when it is released in 2008. She plays the quirky wife of a Democratic presidential candidate in “Swing Vote,” produced by Kevin Costner. Dennis Hopper is her insecure husband, while Kelsey Grammer (”Captain Morgan Bateson“) plays the smug incumbent Republican.

The story fictionalizes the dead-heat presidential election of 2000, but instead of Florida, the deciding electoral vote comes down to New Mexico, and one county in particular, and in a fluke of circumstances, one vote by one particular citizen. And naturally, the two candidates and their campaign organizations swoop down on the small rural town to sway that vote. Costner plays the apathetic trailer-park single dad who faces the pressure of having to single-handedly decide the fate of the free world.

Most of the film was shot on location in New Mexico, which is quite convenient to Visitor because she is living there while shooting Wildfire, an ABC Family show going into its fourth season. Her role in “Swing Vote” is small, but significant."

LOL

You're thread title is just like Wallace Shawn's line from The Princess Bride. ("Am I going mad, or did the word "think" just escape your lips??") Oh my goodness, just reading the first half of that line had me cracking up a little. He was SO good in that movie!

And Wallace Shawn played Grand Nagus Zek in DS9 with Nana Visitor! What a small universe!



Nature, Mr. Allnut, is what we are put in this world to rise above.
