Vicki wasn't bad as remakes go, but I liked the orignal version better.


I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me.

Nice signature AlanSquier. I looked it up and found the source just from reading your sig.

Again, nice quote! I should probaby see "In a Lonely Place" when I get a chance!

Ah, that was one of my favorite quotes, but I do like to change every so often. Does anyone know where I picked up my current one? Clue, I actually picked it up from the book knowing that it will probably be a popular catch phrase about a month from now. In context, it has very sinister implications.

I haven't seen this film (yet) but I have watched the remake and liked it. The remake screamed Laura to me and I was wondering if this film (which was made 3 years prior to Laura) has that same feel to it.

has that same feel to it.

It does, though somewhat differently.

As for the original being better yeah i'd say so. I can't think of any area in which the remake was stronger but I like the sisters in Vicki too especially Peters. Grable and Mature were just better than their counterparts though.

"Vicki" is on tonight (the "MOVIES!" channel, I think), so I'll see it for the first time.

I didn't know about "Vicki." My recording of I Wake Up Screaming got slightly compromised, so I checked listings to see if it was going to be on again soon. I saw a description for Vicki and said, "It's I Wake Up Screaming! (WTH?)." 


Mag, Darling, you're being a bore.
