Ulee's Gold
Day: Tuesday March 29 2016
Time: 10:00 PM Eastern
Channel: TCM
Record number: 21

Title: Ulee's Gold (1997)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Jessica Biel, Christine Dunford, Vanessa Zima

Description: Earlier in the movie, in the first half, 30-something mother Helen (Dunford) is tied down to a bed with sheets, ungagged, while she is going through severe withdrawal of a drug that the bad guys kept her strung out on. Scenes of her strugging against the bonds ensue, with family friend Connie (Patricia Richardson) having to inject her with a sedative.

At around 1hr 25mins the three Jackson women, Helen, and daughters Casey (Biel) and Penny (Zima), are being held captive in the living room of their home by the earlier bad guys who are out to extort Ulee Jackson himself. After one of them asks "Got any duct tape, Mr. Jackson?", he responds with a stone-faced "Sure". The very next shot opens with a panning close-up of the three damsels each having their feet and hands wrapped multiple times with duct tape to chairs, then cuts to a close-up of Casey being gagged onscreen with duct tape wrapped at least three times very tightly around her mouth (she even rolls her eyes back during this sequence, such is the realism). The panning shot continues as we see Penny and Helen already sporting similar wraparound duct tape gags, but they have both only received a single wrap; considerably less brutal than Casey's. Doe-eyed expressions from both of them, but all remain silent and docile.

As their captors leave the house, the lights are (infuriatingly) switched off. In the darkness we can still just about make out the taped-up damsels, with Casey attempting to free herself by energetically rocking her chair back and forth. A while later, upon being discovered by Connie, the lights are turned back on and we briefly hear some quiet mmpphhing. We are treated to a final panning shot showing Helen, Penny and Casey, all still taped to their chairs and gagged as before. Casey, however, has struggled so much that her chair is now tipped over onto the floor on its side. The scene ends with a full-body shot of Casey, who mmpphhs quietly just once. All are released offscreen. Total length of both sequences is 1min 17secs.

Don't Worry, We'll Think of a Title
Day: Tuesday March 29 2016
Time: 6:00 AM Eastern
Channel: ThisTV
Record number: 13521

Title: Don't Worry, We'll Think of a Title (1966)
Medium: Movie
Actress: January Jones

Description: Bad spy spoof starring Morey Amsterdam, Rose Marie and Richard Deacon of "The Dick Van Dyke Show" which may still prove entertaining to those old enough to remember its era-or its cast, given that even they obviously didn't take it seriously.

Jones, an attractive blonde with really nice legs in an even nicer period dress and heels, ends up about an hour and twenty minutes in tied rather sparsely but prettily to a chair, one rope running from her crossed ankles to the chair back, another around her midsection. She's also gagged with a rather thin fold of cloth, but manages to get in a few good mmphs regardless. She holds her hands behind her as if they're also tied, but they're never visible.

There's another actress by the same name in the database, but it should be noted that they are obviously two different people, given that the films in which they appear were made nearly four decades apart.
