Been dying to see her in ''Tan PANTYHOSE'' ever since her scene wearing that white bodysuit in ''2 days in the valley.'' her long legs, gorgeous body and looks are a dream come true. most men would amputate a leg and an arm to be her lover for a period of time, she has admitted to being a ''NYMPHOMANIAC'' not the sort of thing you would do just for one night with her but an agreeable time like 2 years and out with the chainsaw and tourniquet. OH ! and a big jar of ''BLUE PILLS'' not that I'd need them but would want to make it worth the cost of amputation...... lol if you read this Charlize?? call me - @Sunday, February 7, 2016 5:43 AM

movies and series buffs
as a matter of fact this is an amazing movie, played by a talented actress who pulled off the role very beautifully. some may say this is boring or dumb, I 'll say this is a genius work. If a woman has ever experienced rejection, love and distress this actually helps people to overcome their emotional problems. you get to see the problem from different angles and manage to apply that to your real life. - @Friday, July 3, 2015 6:42 PM
