Great great site. And it's nice to see involvement. First time I saw Rachael was a broadcast of "Bumblebee" for which I wanted to see Janeane (a funny,funny person)...but I saw Rachael and my jaw went slack. I though to myself, "and she can act as well?"..the last time I noticed someone in that manner was Phoebe Cates, those 112 years ago Smile
Anyway, since that initiation a year ago, I've seen a great many RLC films and am always amazed at the way she LEAPS off the screen. No matter what else is going on, she commands attention with that delicate, unique, and kind face. My favorites to this point have been "Stateside", "She's All That" and "All I Wanna Do" (naturally)and"Sally" for her haircut.
And BOY has she done a bit of work...the point of this message in a bottle. I'm putting out this feeler for fans who really like to see/have everything...because I have so little. When I see that she's done "Outer Limits" and talk shows, and obscure things like "11:14" and ""Dawson's Creek"...I get discouraged because I'd like to have it all, but also ENcouraged because I'd like to have it all. What was her MTV appearance with her brother that I seem to recall had them hiking somewhere like a jungle or desert...was awfully drunk that day...but I'd like to have it someday.
I've collected ,in younger days,a similar archive of past absolute favorites Jennifer Jason Leigh and Jodie Foster, yet their careers seem to be winding down, while I have other "working" favorites to build archives for such as RLC, Mena Suvari, Claire Danes, Tania Raymonde and enjoy following theircareers.This is a VERBOSE introduction I realize but Rachael just has that star quality that gets under one's skin and one wants to collect everything....I even went so far as to feel "Texas Rangers" was worth seeing twice because of Rachael's performance as the aloof and unobtainable belle. Well...if anyone can get me jump-started in the right direction with a U.S. collector, or leads for networking I would greatly appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!
I'm always open to also discuss Katie Holmes, Michelle Trachtenberg as well, for they also have star quality and will likely have long careers to enjoy.

Thanks any and all I might hear from Smile

Welcome! I would suggest looking at e-bay and amazon.com to find movies and related parafanalia.I'd be careful, though, if looking for autograped items,especially on e-bay. I think there is a link somewere in this website to the E! Celebrity Adventure episode were Rachael and her brother were in Australia.Sorry, but I don't have the proper equipment to download some of my videotapes of some of Rachael's appearances Frown !
If you can get a hold of her appearances on Hollywood Squares especially ones with her brother, Ben, they are great. Also the episode of Punked that she appeared on was good. I mentioned those shows because they seem to show the "real" Rachael. I know this sounds cynical, but they may also be just a product of a good p/r rep!
