Small Soldiers
Day: Friday January 03 2014
Time: 3:00 PM Eastern
Channel: ThisTV
Record number: 720

Title: Small Soldiers (1998)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Kirsten Dunst

Description: The action begins when some evil "Gwendy" dolls capture her. As she walks into her room, the dolls advance on her. One of them swings a lasso made from friendship beads, which she uses to lasso Kirsten's ankles, taking her down.

The dolls jump on her en masse, and we see some great closeups. Later, the head toy soldier comes to taunt her while she is gagged with a sock and her arms and legs are taped.

Then the story cuts to another plotline. When we see her again, she is roped to a chair with tape hanging off her mouth. The soldiers have sent this footage on a video to demand the Gorgons' surrender.

In the rescue scene, we see her still roped to the chair, but with a big piece of silver duct tape across her mouth. The dolls have a little time to taunt her before she is cut free -- eliciting some excellent mmmphing in a nice closeup.

When this aired on ABC, the scenes began around the 74' mark, and ended about 83' in, with an ad break. Also this from a poster at Discussion:

"When the doll appears on Kirsten's shoulder, there's a shot of her excitedly mmmmphing away while motioning her head sideaways at the doll. ABC cut that part out."

The Professionals
Day: Friday January 03 2014
Time: 8:00 AM Eastern
Channel: Movies!
Record number: 2018

Title: The Professionals (1966)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Claudia Cardinale

Description: In this Western set in the early 20th century, a Texas oilman hires four adventurers to rescue his wife, whom he claims has been kidnapped by a Mexican bandito. She, however, doesn't want to be rescued but since the adventurers are professionals, they're honor bound to complete the contract, no matter what the cost.

About an hour and fifteen minutes in, they attack the bandito's camp and spirit her away into the night, Burt Lancaster lifting her over his shoulder into a railcar and then tying her hands behind her back. The scene then cuts to the next morning, where they rendezvous with a compatriot on a train that, unbeknownst to them, has been captured by the bandits. After another furious gunfight which follows Lancaster using Cardinale, her hands still bound, as a human shield, she's carried over his shoulder into the locomotive where she's tied standing to the side of the cab. A few minutes later she's shown on horseback with her hands tied in front for a couple of shots. She isn't gagged during any of the scenes.
