Imagine waking up in the body of a 35-
year-old woman with no recollection of how
you got there.
Your name is a mystery, people around
you are unfamiliar, and you have no idea
who the father of your child is.
This is just beginning of strange events
for Geena Davis in The Long Kiss Goodnight.
In the film, Davis portrays Samantha
Caine, a woman who has lived for eight
years as a recovering amnesia victim.
She has a daughter and a loving, signifi
cant other and is involved in the community.
But when visions of “Charly,” her past
persona, start to come back, Samantha be
comes worried about controlling her life.
And when Samantha learns she used to be
an assassin for the United States, bullets start
flying, and the plot of the film gets thick.
Samuel L. Jackson is Mitch Henderson,a
low-budget detective who joins
Samantha/Charly on her journey to find out
the truth.
Throughout the film, he delivers cleverly
placed one-liners, leaving the audiencein
great upheavals of laughter.
Davis, on the other hand, seems to be
America’s first female action star.
She gives a meaty, hard-core edge to
the character of Charly, and when Saman
tha returns, she reverts to being practical
and motherly.
Renny Harlin, director of the film, has a
hit on his hands.
As Davis’ husband, Harlin had a rough
time coping with the failure of directing his
wife’s pirate feature, Cutthroat Island.
But now, the success he achieved with
('.liffhanger and Die Hard has returned.
Davis and Jackson have an onscreen
chemistry that is undeniable, and the film
never gives the audience a dull moment.
The Long Kiss Goodnight delivers just
what an audience wants — good acting, daz
