FLASH IN THE PAN BABES: JULIA ORMOND
Whatever happened to Julia Ormond, the drop-dead gorgeous brunette who was supposed to The Next Great Thing? She looked great on a horse in Catherine the Great. She ruined the lives of Anthony Hopkins' sons in Legends of the Fall. (The best part of that flick was a scene where she was chatting with a 13 or 14-year old Indian girl being educated by Anthony Hopkins on the family ranch in Montana. At this point in the movie, the son she was engaged to died in the First World War, Ormond had the hots for Brad Pitt, and the last son was the victim of love unrequited by ol' Julia. The teenager told Ormond in a matter of fact tone of voice that she (the teenager) was going to marry Pitts' character. Julia's laugh died in her throat when she realized the Indian gal meant it and, later in the movie, pulled it off-leaving Julia to marry the last brother.) Julia where are you?

She destroys Anthony Hopkins' family in Legends of the Fall. She broke up the Arthur/Lancelot friendship in whatever that crappy re-interpretation of a movie was with Sean Connery. She got typecast as the woman who will be nothing but a curse to men. That is why she was a flash in the pan.

Julia is ultimate, just looks at what sheis doing in daily life. If you can't bear the beast in Legends of the fall, then just don't watchit twice
I love that wild nature, that passion in life
yours trully
