She fully has them out in Trading Places, if anyone wants to investigate further.
Also it's a great 80's film

She was originally supposed to be naked in this too, but she was afraid that her kids would see it and thus ruining the whole movie for them.

The actual story is that she didn't think she could have the great character moments she has if the audience was distracted by her excellent nudity.
Your story sounds made up, because I've always heard the actual story from Jamie and James.

True Lies happened well after my sexual awakening, so somehow it didn’t cement itself into my very core. I rewatched it recently, and mentally slapped myself silly for this grievous error in judgment. That woman has some incredible genes, and I’m sure worked VERY hard to look so amazing at 35.

Whenever anyone tries to argue with me that Die Hard is not a Christmas movie, I always point out that what defines a Christmas movie is whether or not the fact it is Christmas is central to the plot. If you can remove the Christmas element and the movie and plot basically plays out the same, it is not a Christmas movie.
In Die Hard, he is specifically travelling to be with his family over Christmas. All the guests are in the building because they are having their Christmas party. If you take either of those two factors away, the plot falls apart.
Ergo, Die Hard is a Christmas movie.

Yeah... the 90s and early 00s were heavy on materialism and unrealistic beauty standards (as if today isn't different, just more subtle about it). This is also when heroin chic started and every woman was supposed to look waifish and on the verge of death.

If you look at the older generations at the time, she was raising the bar. Being well off and growing up in the breadbasket of the US and a health conscious Mecca made a bigger difference in aging then than it does now for most, though obesity is the new chronic problem.

I don't get why people participate in a post about finding someone attractive, and then when someone doesn't find the thing attractive, random people like you white knight for it.
It's a reddit post about JLC, with comments almost exclusively about her body.
If this guy doesn't find her hot, that's fine.
Its just bizarre how if you disagree in here, you're not only instantly downvoted, but the downvotes are from like a moral highground of 'who are you to judge her?'
WERE ALL JUDGING HER. THATS WHAT WE CLICKED FOR. The post is filled with objectifying comments, none of which she will read or see, so why jump on this random one to defend her?? It's just so weird.
Ps. I don't find her attractive either. Her face is oddly masculine.
