729.0. "Dream Lover" by NETRIX::michaud (Charlie Chan) Sat Dec 31 1994 17:14

	This one stars James Spader as a resonably well-to-do business
	owner who, after recently divorcing his first wife, looks for
	his "Dream Lover".  After several aweful blind dates one of
	his friends has set him up with, he accidently bumps into an
	interesting woman.  After running into her once more (at the
	grocery store this time) he pursues her ...... but in reality
	who pursued who ...... (as he finds out his "Dream Lover", whom
	he has since married, may not be after all)

	Most of this film was interesting as the plot developed, until
	the last 1/2 hour where the plot holes started showing up and
	then the stupid ending ......

	> Most of this film was interesting as the plot developed, until > the last 1/2 hour where the plot holes started showing up and > then the stupid ending ...... I actually liked the ended, a lot... While there were some plot holes which showed up (especially in the hearing Spader has) I didn't bother me... and the ending was nice, real nice... The woman who plays his "dream lover" was also very easy on my eyes... ;-) In fact, she's probably one of the few really attractive actresses I've seen recently... what else has she been in, since she looks familiar. /Scott

	from memory, she's Madchen Amick (sp?) who was Kelly in Twin Peaks (I think). Andy

	She was the one in "Sleepwalkers", wasn't she? GTI
729.4	the purse again?	SWAM1::MEUSE_DA		`Tue Jan 03 1995 18:47`	8
	Well one thing. Hopefully Spader's character will stay a single man. Entertaining flick. The ending I wasn't too sure about.
729.5	Right on both counts	EVMS::HALLYB	Fish have no concept of fire	`Thu Jan 05 1995 12:49`	4
	Madchen ("MAY-chin") Amick was the virgin in "Sleepwalkers" and played Shelly the non-virgin in "Twin Peaks". John
