if you've seen a movie with RLC, could you please mention what you thought of it. especially the RLC role and how she does in it. i'd just like to know, since i might be picking up a few of her less well known movies based on what people say.

i'm especially interested in these movies, i've not seen them.

American Crime (2004) .... Jesse St. Claire
Stateside (2004) .... Dori Lawrence
My First Wedding (2004) .... Vanessa
Tempo (2003) .... Jenny Travile
11:14 (2003) .... Cheri
The Big Empty (2003) .... Ruthie
Bookies (2003) .... Hunter
Scorched (2003/I) .... Shmally
29 Palms (2002) .... The Waitress
Tangled (2001) .... Jenny Kelley
The Hi-Line (1999) .... Vera Johnson
Living Out Loud (1998) .... Teenage Judith
The Naked Man (1998) .... Delores
Strike! (1998) aka All I Wanna Do
The Eighteenth Angel (1998) .... Lucy Stanton
The House of Yes (1997) .... Young Jackie-O
Carpool (1996) .... Kayla
26 Summer Street (1996) .... The Girl

American Crime (2004) .... Jesse St. Claire...bad movie---pass
Stateside (2004) .... Dori Lawrence...good movie with excellent performance from RLC
My First Wedding (2004) .... Vanessa---have not seen
Tempo (2003) .... Jenny Travile...ok movie but RLC is lovely...
11:14 (2003) .... Cheri...loved the movie and her performance---maybe her sexiest role yet!
The Big Empty (2003) .... Ruthie...weird movie---ok
Bookies (2003) .... Hunter...ok movie---cute but undeveloped role...
Scorched (2003/I) .... Shmally...small weak role in weak movie...
29 Palms (2002) .... The Waitress...flawed movie but RLC sparkles and makes it worthwhile...
Tangled (2001) .... Jenny Kelley...see above but double cute!
The Hi-Line (1999) .... Vera Johnson...excellent performance in a thoughtful film...
Living Out Loud (1998) .... Teenage Judith...???
The Naked Man (1998) .... Delores...???
Strike! (1998) aka All I Wanna Do...small role in cute movie...
The Eighteenth Angel (1998) .... Lucy Stanton...she is beautiful!! drop dead gorgeous in this movie which is otherwise ok...
The House of Yes (1997) .... Young Jackie-O...small role---weird movie...ok only...
Carpool (1996) .... Kayla...funny if stupid movie...young RLC who is extra-cute as schoolgirl...
26 Summer Street (1996) .... The Girl
???

From that list, I'd go with "11:14", "Stateside" for overall value; "Tangled" and "The Eighteenth Angel" for looks...
and "The Hi-Line" for acting...

Happy viewing!!!

I would go with "11:14" and "The Big Empty" if you want to see Rachael having sex. The scenes aren't too graphic compared to other movies, but the most graphic you'll get in any RLC movie. I liked "American Crime". I think Cary Elews steals the show as a third rate Robin Leech/John Walsh-type journalist. There is also an implyed lesbian scene with Rachael and Annabella Sciorra. Eek The Naked Man is hard to find, but worth it. Rachael as a biker chick! Eek Michael Rappaport is good as is the late Michael Jetter. Look for the Elvis-like bodyguard! Laugh Out Loud
The Hi-Line shows Rachael's acting greatness. Her male co-star was her boyfriend at the time so their relationship seems genuine."Scorched" is funny. There is a small dream sequence where Rachael's character dreams that she is a warrior queen that is both funny and sexy."Living Out Loud" is a chick flick. Not mentioned, but only available on VHS"Defenders:Payback". Rachael's performance is just as good if not better than in "Hi-Line". Clea Duvall from SAT has a good role as the sister of Rachael's character."True Woman" is good. Rachael is only in half of the film, but Angelina Jolie plays Rachael's charater as a woman."Country Justice" isn't available for sale in America,but if you can get it,record it, or just see it, it is good, so is the late George C. Scott.
