Overview (TMDB): | Paris follows rookie detective Jason Bartok on his disturbing journey through the shadowy underworld of Los Angeles and Las Vegas, illuminated only by a sweet but short-lived romance with a strikingly beautiful, enigmatic woman. As the tale unfolds, Jason accidentally shoots his corrupt partner, Leon, grabbing stolen money from the crime scene at the older policeman's urging. The guilt-ridden young man quickly takes to the road to track down Leon's lover, Linda/Shen Li, an illegal Chinese immigrant, to deliver the bag of cash to her. Jason's search takes in seedy motels and rough bars, an L.A. massage parlor and a Nevada ranch, until finally in a dingy Vegas dive, he discovers the irresistible Linda, a sparkling jewel ensnared by the sex trade. Stalked by thugs, the money's "rightful owners", Jason and Linda are thrust together to make their escape through the haunting landscape that is the California desert. |

Smokes constantly in her first few scenes, not at all thereafter. It's phony as can be -- not only does she appear not to inhale, she does that thing nonsmokers do when they're playing smokers, i.e., wave the cigarette around a lot and take about 10 times as many drags/minute as a real smoker would. In a way, of course, that's not a negative, but it does scream 'fake!' She also dangles a few times, equally unconvincingly. Oh, and those toothpick-thin cigarettes she smokes don't help either. |
