Michelle Forbes


Knowing Michelle in Galactica, Waking the Dead, The Inside, TNG, Swimming with Sharks, and Confessions of an American Girl...I was realy impressed with her performance. I think she really took the role on well.

She is quoted as saying that she didn't like to play strong and authoritative woman because she wanted variety in her career, but I think the emotion that was required in this role was really a step above anything else that she's done.

I'm watching it now. She's blowing me away.

you should watch some of her other stuff. She plays all these severe tough as nails characters and Jamie McDowell is definately a departure.

reply

The Jamie McDowell character is similar to the Dr. Julianna Cox she played on Homicide. Except the McDowell character is more emotional, flying off the handle without thinking things through.

Even though I like Michelle Forbes the actor, I didn't particularly like the character Jamie McDowell.

No two persons ever watch the same movie.

You've hit it right on the head. This is the best thing Michelle Forbes has ever done. It was an amazing performance.

I agree with you. She was really good. I just wished she fired the gun several times during the movie.
