Yeah, that's Amy Adams...

So I'm going through the HBOs and i stumble across Cruel Intentions 2. Now the first movie is a classic. It's not amazing cinema, but for titillating sensation it totally delivers. The second one, which I've seen about three minutes of, is a far cry from the original.
Actually, the sequel feels more like an after hours Cinema production based on the quality of the production and the acting. But this is a all just a long winded way to get to the fact that in this 2000 masterpiece lies a special little gem, which is that AMY ADAMS IS IN THE MOVIE!

But better yet, she's not playing the sweet and innocent part you'd assume she'd be cast in based on her recent career trajectory. No, the star of Julie and Julia or Julia and Julie, actually plays the conniving, back stabbing trouble maker played so perfectly by Sarah Michelle Geller in the original.
Now I didn't stop long enough to compare the two performances, but the tiny bit i did see, during which Amy Adams tries to get out of gym and dance class left me thinking her version might not be at the same level. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the picture of her from the movie.
