The Long Kiss Goodnight(1996) Movie Review 2/4

Part two of my review of The Long Kiss Goodnight(1996) starring Geena Davis, Samuel L. Jackson, Yvonne Zima, Craig Bierko, Tom Amandes, Brian Cox, Patrick Malahide, and David Morse. Directed by Renny Harlin. Trivia Shane Black became the first writer to sell a script for million. Director Trademark: [Renny Harlin] [finland] A phone booth has writing on the side that says Hell Sinki, as in Helsinki, Finland. Geena Davis and then-husband director Renny Harlin checked how long she could hold her breath in their bathtub to prepare for the “water torture” scene. Renny Harlin credits Craig Bierko with suggesting the song “She’s Not There” by Santana. In the first draft of the script, the name “Sam Caine” was not an alias used by Charly Baltimore (as it is in the finished film) but was instead a creation of her mind, as an anagram of “amnesiac”.
