Pony Soldier (1952) |
Day: Sunday February 03 2008 |
Time: 5:00 AM EST |
Channel: TCM |
Title: Pony Soldier (1952) Medium: Movie Actress: Penny Edwards Description: Emerald Neeley (Ms. Edwards) is captured by Crees, along with a man. Around the 25' mark (in the AMC airing I saw), she's shown being freed by hero Tyrone Power. She's inside a tent at the camp. The scene is very brief. She's bitgagged, and Power is just cutting her wrist bonds behind her back when the cut is made to the tent. She removes the gag, and that's pretty much it. Later, about 70' in, recalcitrant members of the Cree nation grab her again and whisk her off. We see her again bitgagged (appearing to be made of leather, secured by thongs or cords wrapped around the ends) and bound wrists behind. After a long march, they bind her ankles over her flowing skirt, and build a fire to immolate her. Power, a Cree chief, and a Cree boy save the day. This scene runs about six minutes. |
Ella Enchanted (2004) |
Day: Sunday February 03 2008 |
Time: 2:20 AM EST |
Channel: TBS |
Title: Ella Enchanted (2004) Medium: Movie Actress: Anne Hathaway Description: There are couple of scenes worth mentioning in this cute fairy tale film. The first scene comes early when Ella (Hathaway) is handgagged by the future Prince (Hugh Dancy). The scene lasts a couple of seconds with one or two good closeups of her face. The second scene comes a little bit later when Miss Hathaway is arrested in the town market for stealing. The scene is only about a second or two in length but it's a good closeup manacles being clamped on her wrists The third scene is a good one. Some large ogres capture Ella decide to cook her for their dinner. (The film's best line occurs at this point. When the ogres' leader asks Ella "How would you like to be eaten? Baked? Broiled? Shish-kaboobed?" she replies, "How about free range?") They slowly lower her into a big cooking pot with her hands tied in front of her with more rope around her waist. Her feet are also tied together with the same rope. The Prince then comes to rescue her and cuts her down. There is a good closeup of her tied hands as she falls to the ground. She then is able to untie herself and help in the fight that has broken out. The last scene comes towards the end when Ella orders an elf to chain her to a tree. This scene lasts about a minute or so before the elf takes off and the scene ends. A couple of minutes later we return to Anne still chained to the tree. This scene lasts a couple more minutes and she is then set free. |

Record number: 488 Title: The Big Hit (1998) Medium: Movie Actress: China Chow Description: China Chow (a beautiful eurasian model) is restrained in various ways beginning at around the 32' mark (with commercials). She wears a schoolgirl outfit -- plaid, pleated miniskirt; starched white dress shirt and tie; and cute little white shoes. She is kidnapped by a gang that includes the benevolent Mark Wahlberg. The gang binds her hands behind her with silver handcuffs, and she is handgagged during the initial scene. After this, her ankles are tied with a white towel, and she is cleavegagged with another strip for a ride behind the back seat of an SUV. Mark ends up keeping her at his house in the suburbs. When they arrive, he cuffs her hands in front around a pole in his basement. Later, he moves her to another house, where he tries to keep her hidden from his fiancée and her parents. Her hands are cuffed behind her and her legs are tied, so she hops around the house mmphing through her towel gag in several scenes. Mark finally puts her in the back of his SUV, parked out of the way in the garage. He accidentally conks her on the head with the hatchback as he closes it. While he is otherwise occupied, the family takes it out for a drive, never noticing the unconscious China. When they return, Mark wraps her in a sleeping bag and hides her in the house while the family leaves again. He ungags her, so she can help him cook, and then cuffs her hand to his so she will be more effective. Sparks fly, and they start to make out, when, alarmed by a possibly innocuous comment (this is one amoral story, so who knows) he makes about "something so beautiful having to die" (along those lines, at any rate), she tries to escape. She is bound and gagged as before and thrown into the small trunk of his Firebird. We don't see her again until Mark goes for a car chase in the Firebird. She is released at the end of the chase. |
