Recap Supplement: Batman & Robin (1997)

Death Proof (2007) (part 4 of 5)
Regardless, this segment begins with Stuntman Mike driving up to a general store, and the scene goes to black and white. Ooh, arty. Thanks Q, but I prefer my art and sleaze to be separate.
Three of the girls (they’re picking Zoe up later) pull up, and Abernathy and Lee stay behind while Kim goes inside. We get a nice, creepy moment as Mike approaches Abernathy as she sleeps with her bare feet conspicuously sticking out the window. Happily, Tarantino gives us a break from his fetishes after this, for the most part.
I think at this point, most actresses just look at Tarantino’s scripts, roll their eyes, and say, “Fine, shoot my feet. Long as it’s not a bush shot.”
I should also point out that Lee doesn’t notice this, because she’s singing to a song on her iPod. Yep, I guess she’s the dumb one of the group. Also, she’s dressed like a cheerleader the entire time, which is… Well, it’s just an excuse to have this paragraph go one more sentence.
Hey, at least I’m honest about it!
