Jenny Wright as Jane

Wow. I was surprised there wasn't a thread about her here already.

So as not to sound completely shallow, I'll begin by saying she does a great job with a very small part, giving the character a real presence and personality that would've made an impression regardless. Okay, now on to the superficial stuff.

She is flat-out stunning here. Not simply pretty, but drop dead beautiful. That's not to mention her body, which is--and I don't say this lightly--perfect. The early 90s saw the rise of several young actresses the media seemed to drool over as the epitome of beauty (Julia Roberts, Demi Moore) but frankly neither of them could touch Wright here.

Right on, Fluke. You said it all, man. A small but memorable role. Yeah, she was definitely a total knockout - the hair, the attitude, everything. And dat ass. Was that a body double?!

I don't believe so. We see her up on the horse, still nude, riding side saddle and get a solid look at her rear assets and it appears to be the same as that glorious rear view shot. Just flawless.

Doing some research, it seems she fell on some hard times in the last two decades. Looks to be on the convention circuit these days if the pics are any indication, but sadly the worse for wear.

Sad to hear that. I hope she's doing better.

Yeah, me too. I hate to see people end up like that. But she'll always have this shining moment!

She is very beautiful in this movie. Loved her in this and Near Dark of course she is wonderful

I was surprised there wasn't a thread about her here already... She is flat-out stunning here. Not simply pretty, but drop dead beautiful. That's not to mention her body, which is--and I don't say this lightly--perfect... Julia Roberts, Demi Moore... neither of them could touch Wright here

I came here looking for just such a thread. I liked the movie, but the highlight for me was Jenny's scenes, topped off by that unexpected whoa part. Yeah, she blows Roberts out of the water, as far as I'm concerned. Demi has a great body, but I prefer Jenny to her as well.

I hope she's doing well now after what she had to go through. As far as aging goes, she's going to be 54 this month; Age happens to the best of us. At least she had a prime and this movie proves it.

She was smokin' hot in this, love her small part and love her naked parts! Gave me some nice dreams back in the day.

I'm disappointed IMDB is doing away with the message boards so now we can't come here anymore soon to say our opinions about nice naked bodies and all.
