Four Seconds of Fame

[Flick James]

I’ve mentioned once or twice that my wife has quite a bad movie claim to fame, appearing for a few seconds in one of the worst movies of all time, Bio-Dome. She was living in L.A. at the time, just a year or so out of high school, and worked as an extra for a while. She can be scene twice in the following clip, once at 0:31 and once at 0:58 for a couple of seconds each. She’s the one just right of center in the very front, in the pink bikini top with both hands in the air.

I occasionally see Bio-Dome on while flipping through channels and, while the movie is just plain unwatchable, I will usually check in to see if that scene is close. I mean, afterall, she's cute, she's in a bikini, and she's my wife.

Enjoy.

I can see why they put her in the front for the crowd scene. Congratulations Flick!

That's awesome (even though "Bio-Dome" is indeed wretched)!!!

I have been present at the filming of two movies ("Class of Nuke'Em High" and "Ghostbusters 2") but as near as I can tell I ended up on the cutting room floor both times. In both cases I was merely a member of the crowd in the background of a scene.

It's hard to tell whether we should congratulate her for being in a movie, which many of us will never be, or offer condolences that the film in question is "Bio-Dome."  

Now, the creepy question for you:  does she still have the bikini?  Do you make her wear it for you?

I've been told that one of my classic camaro's appears in "Blown Away."  I was based in Boston in the early 90's and had a red 1967 and a white (with red rally stripes) 1969.  More than one friend has told me that the car appears in the distant background in one scene.

Either will do. We make fun of it all the time.

I'm pretty sure she has it. I think I've even seen it at some point. Ya creep!

Dude!  How did  an old fart like you get that lucky?

I sometimes wonder about that myself. Well, she does have a thing for bald dudes, so that just happened to work in my favor.
