The shooting of a U.S. senator's wife raises the stakes for kidnappers seeking a hefty ransom for a computer magnate.
Quotable quotes:
Sadie Hawkins: So fill me in.
Dave Friedman: That remark could be misconstrued as sexual harassment, Agent Hawkins.
Sadie Hawkins: [tongue-in-cheek] Let's get it out of the way then: you've never worked under a female superior before. I got to where I am by pushing paper and playing nice - I've never actually fired a gun before, I'm only in this job to prove to my father I'm not a coward. I give decent head, so I got promoted before other worthy candidates, all of them men and all of them equally gifted at fellatio but there was a gender quota to fill. I'm also stupid and idealistic; you are hardened, cynical, and usually right. I'm secretly in love with you but I have a hard time showing it. Did I skip anything?
*********
Detective David Friedman: I understand that this isn't personal because you're not a person.
This has a lot of bad reviews. But Alan Rickman and Emma Thompson are in it - playing New Orleans cops. Alan’s consonants are just incredible, and the “R”s are … unique. They gave it their all.
Emma Thompson sustains injuries and actually looks a mess afterwards - not dewy with a little scrape that enhances her cheekbones.
Gil Bellows of Ally McBeal is in it too.
Anyway. I’d watch it again.

I have never heard of this, but I too am always here for Alan Rickman, so now I am off to hunt it down
