<p dir="auto">some of her line delivery was terrible. The scene where she is questioned by the cop for example.<br />
Actually the entire "explanation to the Doc of her dream" sequence was awful (the script really didn't help either). She was beautiful and had spunk, but you can't help but assume her being married to DePalma helped her get these parts. She was alot better as Sally in "Blow Out".<br />
Streep has another 20 years to win another 2 Oscars, go bitch go.</p>

<p dir="auto">She isn't the best actress around, but I find the scenes with Allen and Franz are some of the best parts of the film. They are amusing and it balances out the heavy handed sleaze of the film's theme.<br />
She does give a terrible and embarrassing performance in De Palma's<br />
Blow Out<br />
the following year. She almost ruins the film and I'd say part of the film's box office failure is due to Allen being cast.<br />
Norman! What did you put in my tea?</p>

<p dir="auto">I've never been impressed with Nancy Allen's acting in pretty much any of her movies.<br />
Nevertheless, I think she's an appealing presence in films.</p>

<p dir="auto">I disagree. I thought she was delightful in this. My favorite role of hers. She's great.</p>

<p dir="auto">You should see her fake, forced, ditzy dumb hooker in BLOW OUT, if you thought she was bad in DTK. You will be on the floor.</p>

<p dir="auto">Her acting in DTK. I haven't seen Blow Out, but I believed her more as the angry student in Carrie</p>

<p dir="auto">Maybe she was trying for a soft-spoken ditzy persona, but it didn't work. I didn't believe her.</p>

<p dir="auto">Do you mean for DTK or BLOW OUT?</p>

<p dir="auto">Her biggest film ,and worst acting.</p>
<hr />
<p dir="auto">I would say her biggest film was De Palma's BLOW OUT-81', with Travolta. She gave an awful performance here and would rather watch her in DTK.</p>

<p dir="auto">I thought she was terrific. Obviously girls that look like Allen don't have to Hook. She was kind of goofy and business-like at the same time. Yes we know why she got the part but this is a case where others woulnd't have done better with the part.<br />
