JA fgrom MNPP here. The boyfriend and I went and saw Joan Allen and Jeremy Irons on Broadway in the play Impressionism last Fall. The show stunk something fierce, but Joan looked ridiculously fantastic - the costumes were to die for and were tailored to her like a glove. A slutty glove of wow-she's-hot!-ness. Click this link here to understand. Saucy minx! For a boy that worships at the altar of what Joan Allen's been selling for years now, it was bliss, watching her strut around like a sexy lady on-stage even if the show itself was lacking (did I mention it stunk? God it stunk).
But that was then, and now is now, and where the heck are you, Joan Allen? Today she turns 53 so a very happy one to her, so let's keep it low on the complaining, but man alive, lady, get out here! She and Irons did a Georgia O'Keeffe biopic called creatively enough Georgia O'Keeffe, but that's been sitting there on her IMDb page for ages and I've heard nothing about it. Nothing! I guess it's gonna air on Lifetime? Ack not worthy of her. There's also something called Good Sharma but.. well, that title makes me feel queasy so whatever. She's had such an odd run of roles these past few years! I get that it's tough for a broad to find good roles at her age, but she's effing Joan Allen! She should be fighting them off. Instead, Death Race.
Whatever. At least there are some credits coming up and maybe they'll be worthy of her. Maybe. That's a tall order. But I hope so. And I went looking just now and see that I've posted on her twice here at The Film Experience in the past! Wacky! I guess she's the actressexual obsession I bring over. Here those previous posts are:
