Record number: 1745 Title: Eagle's Wing (1979) Medium: Movie Actress: Caroline Langrishe Description: Judith (played cute blonde British actress Langrishe) is kidnapped by an Indian (Sam Waterston (!)) and led through the desert with her hands tied behind her back during a large part of the movie. A gag would have worked miracles but the noose around her neck (she's attached to his horse) still gives it a special look and the ropes are really thick! There's a nice tie-up scene when he leaves her to oppose a trapper who's following him. This British-made western stars Martin Sheen, of all people. The scenes in the movie are somewhat marred by the director's curious inattention to detail for the bondage scenes, when he's obviously careful to be accurate in other aspects of the film. For example, in shot from a distance, Langrishe, supposedly bound, brings her hands from behind her back, realizes her gaff and puts them back in place so that in the next scene her wrist can be tied on-screen. Later, Langrishe tries to escape and sprints across the desert with her wrists bound behind her back. She stops, winded, and simply brings her hands from behind her back to hold her head in her hands - and no rope bindings are ever visible. Still, the last scene makes up for the gaffs - Pike (Sheen), determined to possess the white stallion currently being ridden by White Bull, arrives in the Indian's camp and confronts the Indian, his horse and Judith, who is seated with her wrists tied behind her. Indian and horse beat a hasty and retreat and Judith, sunburned and thirsty begs him, "Please... help me." Pike, forced to choose between the woman and the horse, sprints off in pursuit of the Indian. |

| Tape gag scene for Robin Tunney |
|
Record number: 11817 Title: Open Window (2006) Medium: Movie Actress: Robin Tunney Description: It's no "Prison Break," but it does give us a relatively brief tape-gagging of the lovely Robin Tunney (who also gets naked elsewhere in the film). Scene happens early in the film and lasts about five seconds and two shots, though the unfortunate context is that she's just been raped. Her husband rips the tape off and cuts the bonds (which we don't see) holding her hands behind her back. |

| Scene of interest occurs in second half |

Record number: 12816 Title: The Black Dahlia (2006) Medium: Movie Actress: Mia Kirshner Description: As aspiring actress Elizabeth Short in this adaptation of James Ellroy's novel based on her infamous 1947 murder, she appears in a short black-and-white porn film being screened before police detectives about an hour and ten minutes in. Dressed in black underwear and garters, she kneels on a bed while her "costar" (Jemima Rooper) lashes her wrists to the bedposts with what appears to be white rope, then precedes to sodomize her while she grimaces at the camera. There are a couple of brief flashbacks later in the movie. At about an hour and forty minutes, as the lead detective (Josh Hartnett) comes upon the bedroom where the movie was filmed and recognizes the posts, there's a closeup shot of Short's wrist loosely roped to one of them that lasts for a couple of seconds. Some ten minutes after that, there's a full wide color shot of the scene being filmed that unfortunately is about as brief as the previous flashback. |
