Record number: 8420 Title: The Life of David Gale (2003) Medium: Movie Actress: Kate Winslet, Laura Linney Description: Scene 1 occurs about 65 minutes (1:05) into the movie, lasts a couple of minutes. You see a videotaped image of Laura Linney's character, nude on her stomach on a kitchen floor. Her hands are handcuffed behind her and she's gagged with duct tape and suffocating from a plastic bag sealed over her head. Ends badly. Scene 2 occurs about 30 minutes later, approx. 95 minutes (1:35) into the movie. This is with Kate Winslet, playing a reporter, re-creating the death as part of her investigation. Kate's character is fully clothed. She tapes her mouth with duct tape, then ties a bag over her head and handcuffs herself. Her reporting partner is standing by to tear away the bag in a couple of minutes. Some good closeups of Kate's face. Kate starts struggling and mmmmmphing, and her buddy tears off the bag. Good closeup of her gagged face for a second or two after the bag comes off. Scene 3, which is less than 10 minutes later. We get to see Linney's character tape her own mouth and then put the bag on. Scene ends quickly from there. At the very end of the film is a sort-of Scene 4, in which you see slightly more of the videotape with the body of Linney's character still handcuffed, gagged and bagged. |

Record number: 2 Title: Mission: Impossible (1966) Medium: TV Series Actress: Elizabeth Ashley Description: Episode: "The Question" (7.16) One of the all-time great scenes begins as the IMF tries to determine if an assassin (Varsi) is really a defector, or is only pretending to be after being arrested. The team fakes an attack on the apartment where the assassin is being held, and kidnaps him from the agents who had been holding him. They take him to an abandoned winery where he is interrogated by Jim Phelps, and is allowed a look at another prisoner – IMF Agent Andrea (Elizabeth). Varsi now claims to have been lying about wanting to defect, so Jim tells him he must prove it – by killing Andrea. She is walked into the room where he is being held with her hands tied behind her back and is forced to her knees. She is wearing a patterned blouse and slit orange skirt. The assassin is handed a gun and told to kill her. He points it at the back of her head as she acts petrified and says “sorry” when he pulls the trigger. She gives a convincing sigh of relief as the gun clicks harmlessly. She is then pulled to her feet and marched out of the room, giving a nice view of her tied wrists as she is turned around. As the testing continues, Varsi is permitted to continue his mission, and takes Andrea along, ostensibly so that she can be framed for his assigned murder. He easily eludes IMF surveillance, and takes Andrea to an apartment from which he can carry out the murder. She is now wearing a white blouse and jeans, and sits with her hands taped behind her back and her ankles taped together. They talk as she watches him prepare his weapon. As he is expecting his contact to show up, he picks her up in his arms and carries her into the bedroom. Warning her to be quiet or his contact will kill her immediately, he cleave gags her with a white handkerchief. Left alone in the bedroom, she squirms off the bed and over to the phone, where she dials the crew and taps in a message (remember that pesky gag), then wriggles her way back onto the bed just before he returns. There are several good close-ups on her face as she taps morse code into the telephone receiver. When the contact shows up, Varsi finally shows his true colors by announcing that he wants to defect and turn in the contact, but the contact was expecting the double cross and shoots him. He then searches the apartment to find Andrea in the other room. He carries her back into the living room sans gag, puts her in a chair and unties her. He orders her to tape up Varsi, and then is retied herself (off camera). The contact prepares to go ahead with the assassination at the government building across the street, and leave Varsi as the fall guy. Jim spots the gun barrel and climbs up while Varsi and Andrea manage to knock over a table, distracting Nelson so Jim can burst in and disarm Nelson. |
