Thread: Sarah Jessica Parker

What would you, people, say about her?
You may remember her from such films as Sex and the City (can’t boast I’ve ever seen any of those) and Failure to Launch (which has just been on TV, about an hour ago).
I’m going to mute my opinion about the matter for the time being so as to not somehow tip the balance in one way or the other.

I wanna cookie...

I probably should have voted for "I have no idea whom you are talking about", because I thought that I knew her, but apparently I confused Sarah with another actress who played Audrey in "24" (they look terribly alike). Oh, well.. I'll share my opinion on her appearance anyway.

First, "ordinary" does not fit at all. She has a very charactery, interesting face. But I would not dare to call her ugly or beautiful, because these adjectives are too straightforward. I need more epithets here.. Um.. refinedly ugly? unconventionally beautiful? ....
With face like this her mannerisms are what really matters, and they will affect the way other people percive her. And since I have not seen "Sex and the City", and she's not Audrey (dammit!), I have not decided how to vote yet. )))

Ordinary, she doesn't look any way special to me. Neither beautiful nor ugly for any significant extent.

she has a distinctive look, wouldn't call it beautiful by any stretch. I could see her splitting the vote. It depends on your taste, I think some will find her ugly, some beautiful and some ordinary. To me she's OK, nothing I'd go out of my way to look at, but I wouldn't call her ordinary.

I am not quite sure what does word "beautiful" mean. For me she is not attractive in any way, but her face is special, yes. Something from Renaissance. I was able to remember this face. Good for an actress.

We're all almost friends here.

I don’t know where to begin explaining to you what the word could possibly stand for.
«Я часто бываю на Рязанщине, на Брянщине, на Смоленщине.
А тянет к женщине!». Я знаю, что ты знаешь Винокура.
It’s not like I love you as a child could love his mother or a soldier his homeland, it’s like hey, dude, get a load of this chick, isn’t she …?

Yeah, alexB is correct.

As a standalone sentence: "What does слово mean?" But when it's part of something larger: "He couldn't tell me what слово means." "Could you tell me what слово means?" "Try as I might, I never figured out what слово means."


Anyway, about SJP: whenever these kinds of debates come up, we have to decide what kind of scale of attractiveness we are talking about. Are we talking about beautiful relative to most actresses and singers? Or are we talking about beauty relative to real life? I don't find her especially attractive compared to other stars, but that's not a reasonable scale. Guys who post on message boards can be notoriously picky, though.

Okay, I actually have met the SJP in person, up-close. The girls worked for her on a TV show for a day (she was the producer). What she lacks in the beauty department she makes up for in her personality. She was very down to earth, had no make-up on, was in street clothes and just like a regular Joe. She let the crew eat before her and ate WITH the crew not anywhere special. And she was great with the girls and other kids on set. I give her two major thumbs up for all of that

She has also been in Hocus Pocus & Footloose.

Wow, you never saw it!!???
There was a time when you could not meet your female friends without discussing the latest episode... It was just SO big...

The reason women watched it was that as a woman you can "identify" with one of the characters.... Like; Are you a tough and smart career woman, a "man-eater", a "good / innocent girl" or happy go-lucky shopoholic... ? Or a little bit of all...

The other thing about the series was that between these women they date every "type" of man under the sun... with jobs ranging from plumbers, to billonaires, sports stars, genius scientists, priests and lawyers...

And personalities varying too; from mummy's boys to serial cheater, alcoholic, "Casanova", super macho or very whimpy....
And the men have every type of problem imaginable... etc.

So basically; any type of relationship, job problem or fashion problem you have ever had is likely to come up at some point..
Even if you haven't had the problems that are featured, your friends will have experienced it...

That's why it got so popular.


Plus a lot of people watched just to see what clothes the characters wore. It had SERIOUS fashion credentials.


There ARE some references to sex; but no actual sex is explicitly shown and its not the focus of the show.

As you might have guessed, I watched an episode or two....

Not only is she a pig but if she ever opened her mouth to speak in my presence I might become overcome with anger and hit her very hard.

Wow, you never saw it!!???

Ha ha, never.
I have two seasons on DVD stashed somewhere, but I 've never actually made it to watching it. I guess I'm not in the target audience?.. Though I'll probably give it a chance, just to know what it is about. Now I know with whom to share if I become a fan.
