    re: -1
    
    Yes, She was in "Turtle Beach". Movie ran only for one week in Theatre.
    It never came on Video Cassette. If it is, I could not locate it.

62.12Who elese was in "Turtle Beach"31113::WIEGLEBWho is 'The Loneliest Monk'?Thu Mar 11 1993 16:557
    RE: .12
    
    "Turtle Beach" - was this the one with Vincent D'Onofrio (the murdered
    boyfriend in "The Player") that was out in the fall?  I saw ads for this 
    all over Germany in September but with a title like "Salt of the Earth".
    
    - Dave
62.13Hmm?45426::PAYNE_ABook early to avoid disappointmentFri Mar 12 1993 12:454
    I think it had Joan Chen from Twin Peaks in it. Did it have Jimmy Smits
    (L.A.Law, Old Gringo, etc) in it as well?

62.143270::AHERNDennis the MenaceSun Mar 14 1993 15:155
    She was also in the 1985 "Defence of the Realm" with Gabriel Byrne. 
    A very good movie, I thought.
    
    I also think "Heat and Dust" was a great film.  
    
62.15Scacchi & Onofrio49438::BARTAKGod save DEC WienMon Mar 15 1993 10:419
    re. 12
    
    The movie (I think it was a french or italian production) was called
    in German "Salz auf unserer Haut" ("Salt on our skin"). 
    I do not know if this is the same as Turtle Beach.
    It is based on the famous and very successfull novel of 
    Benoite Groult (sp.?). But the movie was a big flop.

    re: .9
    
    "Good Morning, Babylon" is available on video.  I've only
    seen part of it, but I think that the early sections may be
    in Italian with sub-titles, but once the action moves to
    Hollywood, it's in English.
    
    Good movie, I should rent it and see the whole thing.
    I also agree that "Heat and Dust" is an excellent movie.

62.17More complete listQUARRY::reevesJon Reeves, ULTRIX compiler groupMon Mar 15 1993 22:0127
The following is from the USENET databases; it includes every film
(correctly) mentioned so far, plus 6 more, with major co-stars for the
new titles.

Heat and Dust (1982)
Second Face, The (1982)
Camille (1984) (TV)
Burke and Wills (1985)
Coca-Cola Kid, The (1985)
Defense of the Realm (1985)
Dr. Fischer of Geneva (1985) (TV)
Ebony Tower, The (1986) (TV)
Good Morning, Babylon (1987)
Man in Love, A (1987)
White Mischief (1987)
Love and Fear (1988)
Woman in the Moon (1988)
Presumed Innocent (1990)
Fires Within (1991)
Shattered (1991)
Player, The (1992)
Turtle Beach (1992)

I haven't seen any of the additional titles, so all I can add is that
Jimmy Smits and Vincent D'Onofrio are also listed as playing in Fires
Within; there
may be some confusion between this and Turtle Beach in the earlier replies.

62.20"Waterfront"19280::SHAHWed Mar 31 1993 14:176
    I watched "Waterfront" yesterday. Very good movie. Greta's acting is
    very good. This confirm my belief that she is a good and beautiful
    actress. By the way she didn't take her cloths off in any scene.
    "Waterfront" is a very long movie(284 minutes).
