Sandra Oh ("Sideways")

You probably knew this but:

the scene I referenced in "Sideways" was when she hit him and screamed,"You're getting MARRIED on Saturday?!"
Seth is Jimmy's lead in, not competition.
Yes, I knew the particular Bullock movies.
Not Sarah Palin.Quote:

Ask me your "Are you Firstname Lastname?" question by noon Sat., please.
Hmm..a middle-aged female immigrant who's a victim of controversial crime?
Arguably a crime.
Well, I've had a think but I'm stumped on who it might be.
Any guesses, CIAS? (PM sent).
I don't. :(
Nope, no idea from me. Doesn't ring any bells at all.
I am
Soon-Yi Previn
Third and present wife of Woody Allen, who is 35 years older than her, and who was for many years her de facto stepfather. Some believed that his relationship with her amounted to child abuse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_...Soon-Yi_Previn
Good pick!! Fun story: saw picture of her and Woody kissing. Told my counselor that instead of being turned on, the picture gave me the heebee jeebies. He said that means I have good emotional development.
If it had been Palin, I hope you would've said,"You betcha!" ;)
Oh boy, now there's a story I'm not touching with a barge-pole. Interesting choice EH.
