Title: Jamaica Inn (1939)
Medium: Movie

Hostage (2005)
Day: Wednesday September 17 2008
Time: 11:30 AM EST
Channel: USA
Title: Hostage (2005)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Serena Scott Thomas, Michelle Horn, Rumer Willis

Description: The first scene occurs early in the movie and it's of the blink-and-you-missed-it variety. A woman who was being held hostage by her crazed husband (or boyfriend) is found by Bruce Willis tied in the corner with a rag shoved in her mouth. Wrists are tied behind.

She has already been killed. 6 minutes in.

21 to 22 minutes in, there are 3 seperate handgag scenes with Michelle Horn. Closeups, wide eyes and all that good stuff.

30 minutes in, Michelle Horn is bound with packing tape back-to-back with her little brother and her ankles are taped together. Not gagged.

A very brief flash of her as the security shields come down over the windows 32 minutes in. Little brother is in the scene, but since they are tied back to back, you don't really see him.

34 minutes in, you see them roll off the bed together in an effort to escape by breaking the bong she has hidden under the bed and using the glass to cut the tape. It doesn't work, the bad guys hear the bump and come running. They do seperate the both, but her ankles remain tied.

44 minutes in, we see 2 brief shots of Willis' wife and daughter bound (Rumer Willis, Serena Scott Thomas) wrists behind and cleave-gagged with a black cloth in the back of a van. Blink n'miss.

64 minutes in, you see Michelle's bound to a wooden lawn chair (arms to the armrests) and gagged with white tape. One of the bad guys is watching her through a cctv camers. Blink n'miss.

65 minutes in, you see a about 2 minutes of the bad guy gloating, etc, while she remains tied to the chair. She is ungagged about 35 seconds in. Closeup as he peels it off.

The bad guy unties her 76 minutes in, but shows us a closeup of her restraints.

83 minutes in, Bruce Willis is handed polaroids of his wife and daughter bound and gagged like in the scene at 44min. Blink n'miss.

84 minutes in, one of the bad guys ties Michelle Horn spread eagled to her bed. Guess that is what happens to girls who have a bunch of straps, belts and scarves hanging off their 4 post bed. Scene lasts about 40 seconds. He finishes tying her up (wrists are already bound, only her left leg isn't tied up at the begining of the scene), turns off the lights and leaves.

87 minutes in, another flashback to Bruce Willis' wife and daughter. Short.

A couple seconds later, you see the sister franticly trying to get freed. Her little brother is cutting the straps, but manages to get only 1 wrist (and apparantly her legs) free before the bad guy comes in.

She manages to escape.

A fair bit of struggling in this scene.

101, 105 minutes in, Bruce's wife and daughter are shown tied-up with sacks over their heads. There apparently gagged because you hear the "mmmmphing!", but it's not shown.

Time: 12:00 AM & 10:00 AM EST
Channel: Lifetime Movie Network
Title: Truth (2005)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Jovanna Huguet

Description: In this straight-to-video effort to keep Stephanie Zimbalist employed, a black van whose driver could not be more obvious about his intentions screeches up next to Christie (Huguet). By the time running away occurs to her, she's been grabbed. We next see her in the back of an SUV, gagged over the mouth with hands tied behind. She's rescued fairly quickly after a couple good medium shots (no real closeups).
