Don Johnson was magnificent. One got the impression that he could have done these things in real life he was that convincing. How can Rebecca Mornay have been miscast unless there was a clear example of what her character should have been like ? Clearly she was not as sharp as she thought she was so who could have been cast in her place - Angelina Jolie etc ? Her sexuality was largely lost in the role - the compulsory bedroom, or was it an office, scene largely wasted her naked charms but no doubt there is an special cut somewhere ? And certainly her boyfriend could have looked a bit more of a high flier and up to the job of satisfying her. I never quite worked out why Don Johnson kicked the c##p out of him. But then regrettably I missed the denouement as my LP recording as I went to be well after midnight failed to track leaving me with only a usable soundtrack. But I presume that the gigolo had to die as there really wasn't anyway else for him to leave the stage.
I thoroughly enjoyed "Guilty as Sin" but had to scroll up twice to remember the title so perhaps it wasn't representative ? "Gigolo without a Soul" might have given too much away ? "Pack em, rack em and dispatch em" might have been too crude ? "So Don Johnson can really act" might have been too Patronising ? "Too seductive for his own good" is off a critic' note pad ? Watch it the next time it is on TV and it is well worth your time to do so.
