Record number: 765 Title: Dick Tracy (1945) Medium: Movie Actress: Anne Jeffreys Description: Tess Trueheart (Jeffreys) has been kidnapped, and is in the hold of a ship. Tied up and gagged with cloth over the mouth, but a fairly short scene. Tess also endures a superb hand-gag from Splitface (Mike Mazurki) -- he interrupts her during a phone call to Tracy. First he sneaks up and grabs her, then he holds her as he taunts Tracy on the other end of the phone. Tess pants and claws at Splitface's big hand over her lovely face. Classic. There is a publicity still from this film, showing Anne Jeffreys and Jane Greer cleave gagged and menaced by Splitface. Alas, nothing like that is in the movie. |

Record number: 11871 Title: Firewall (2006) Medium: Movie Actress: Virginia Madsen, Carly Shcroeder, Mary Lyn Rajskub Description: Madsen and Schroeder are the kidnapped wife and daughter of Harrison Ford in this thriller. The villains have taken Madsen and Shcroeder (along with Ford's son) hostage to force Ford to help them rob the bank. When Ford first comes home, he finds Madsen and Schroeder tied with cable ties and gagged with clear tape on the couch. He instantly ungags them. A little under an hour later the villains try doublecrossing Ford and take the hostages away in a van. When we see them in the van, they are bound and gagged as they originally were. Ford turns to Mary Lynn Rajskub for help but not before having to handgag her and tell her what's going on. He taps into a computer and takes back the money he robbed for them. Madsen is ungagged so she can talk to Ford over the phone but remains bound for most of the rest of the movie. Shcroeder stays gagged for a while longer until her brother starts hyperventilating and one of the crooks ungags them. A decent bunch of scenes and its neat to see clear tape used for a gag for a change of pace. First scene on the couch is at 17:20 (there 'bouts), not at the 30-minute mark. The next scene, in the van, is at 1:19:57, not at just under the hour mark. Incidently, this scene is AFTER the handgag scene with Mary Lynn Rajskub, not before. Virginia is ungagged & tossed out of the van at the 1:27:00 minute mark. We then see shots of Carly, still tape gagged, at the following times: 1:27:19, 1:28:00, 1:30:11 (for 3 quick shots of her in the background, as Virginia is trying to get their dog to quit barking at the kidnappers while they are driving) 1:31:22, 1:31:50, 1:32:45 and from 1:33:24 until 1:34:05, when she is ungagged. All remain bound for the next 5 minutes or so, then the rough & tumble climax begins & all are freed. |

Record number: 5422 Title: Cherry Falls (2000) Medium: Movie Actress: Brittany Murphy, Clementine Ford Description: Clementine Ford hanging horizontally, face down, tied spreadeagled to an old wooden wagonwheel that is fastened to the ceiling. She is cleavegagged with some white rope. Warning: looks as if she's been brutalized (bloody nose etc). Jody Marken (Murphy) is strapped by the wrists and ankles to some sort of metal chair and is gagged with duct tape. She's menaced by the psycho slasher before being rescued. Murphy's scene is in the last hour, possibly the last 30 minutes. |

| Time: 1:00 PM EST |

| Title: Nurse Betty (2000)
Medium: Movie Actress: Renee Zellweger, Tia Texada Description: About an hour and twenty minutes into this rather dark comedy, the title character (Zellweger) and her roommate Rosa (Texada) have the misfortune of being home when the two hitmen (Morgan Freeman and Chris Rock) who've been chasing Betty finally catch up with her. Freeman grabs Betty and binds her wrists in front with duct tape while his protege does the same with Rosa, adding a tape gag in her case. After her hometown sheriff and a male friend show up unexpectedly, the friend ends up sharing Rosa's predicament while Freeman leads Betty into a bathroom where he cuts the tape, but she takes a while to pull it off and part her hands. Trivia item: Database damsel Stacy Haiduk (The Beneficiary and TV's Superboy) was cast as an actress playing a nurse in the soap opera the movie's plot revolves around, but her scenes were deleted from the final release. |
