HAHA i honestly LOVE Score--Metzger fascinated me as a late teen--after i caught Score on the Canadian channel Showcase. HAHA I've never seen it mentioned outside on other forums before! But yeah it's fascinating for a sorta type of bisexual film that actually ahd talented actors and a story--and never was repeated (at least not until Shortbus which I think is frankly brilliant--though flawed). It was actually absed on a play--I've always wondered what the play was like. Of course part of the appeal too is its oh so 70s--an era I adore (prob cuz I wasn't born till 1980)

*big blush*--how did this get to talk about porn? :P (And Iw as teasing you--I'm obviously nto a prude when it comes to such films :P )

Was Lyn the older woman witht he dark hair or the younger one? I could see the older one being in a soap for sure.

I find Dante's Cove really disappointing--but I have a personal beef with it (it doesn't help that its' technically a Canadian production even though not filmed here). One of the leads--I believe he's an exec producer too--grew up here on Vancouver Island (I'm trying to be obscure but I'm sure you can guess who that is)--and was actually in a failed boyband attempt and then briefly dated a friend of mine. He was a royal jerk to my friend, to be fair he was still in the closet and trying to build a tv/film career (he briefly hosted an awful Canadian reality show)--but now that he's out he's done huge newspaper pieces about how he was always out, he's a role model, bla bla--really arrogant. And worse of all he's a HORRIBLE actor--I have no clue how he's still one of the stars of the piece. Last time I ran into him he was actuallyback in Victoria writing a gay thrille rhe was also going to star in--I'm sure it'll be good for a laugh. People complain about soap opera actors but I sometimes wonder how him and some others on the show are as *awful* as they are.

(Thea Gill on the other hand also lives in Victoria ever since her much older husband started heading up the UVIC theatre department. He's a difficult, IMHO egotistical man who met her while married and she was one of his students--I find it all questionable, but Thea herslef is almsot exactly as she comes off on screen--a really nice and gracious woman, though not that diverse an actress I think)

God I should just start a Dante's Cove gossip blog:P

Great gossip there.

Oh I guess it turned into a talk about soft core porn from the actor being in the Co Ed show which I have seen a few times. Teh guy is no Laurence Olivier but he is not bad as some soap actors these days. Of course he is not given too much to challenge his acting skills on Co Ed either. LOL but like AB Fab said he looks good naked.

Anyway somehow we ended up talking about soap actors who have done both soft core and hard core porn.

Lynn Lowry was the younger girl in the film and was a relative unknown when she got Score. The older actress, I forget her name right now, was the actual star of the play this was based on and the only star from the play to be cast. She took the role and regretted it later as it is the only feature film she is remembered for and said she would have never done it if that had been the case. Also she was an established New York actress with many credits to her name and during filming she learned that Lynn Lowry was making 3 times more than her.

Lowry said filming on the set was very tense after that.

I never have read a direct quote from Lowry but I think from reading between the lines of some of her interviews that she felt her career would have been bigger after that but it wasn't. By the next year she had won the 16 month role on How To Survive a Marriage, but after that didn't get anything in TV that lasted long or even any other big movies.

She and one other performer from the movie are the only 2 living today. The 2 male leads both died of complications from AIDS in the 80's.

It was Hot Line that he was in. It was the 3rd episode of Season 3. He played Jake. Catherine Bell currently on Army Wives played the housewife I think. Also in that episode was Lesley Woods who was Grandma Logan on B&B as well as many other soaps.

Bailey Chase was billed as Bailey Luetgert (his real name) back then.

I have looked and looked for clips or pics of him from that eppy, but never been able to find them.

Bailey was also one of the many young soap actors who appeared almost nude on Undressed. He played Steve in Season 1. SoapHunks.net is usually pretty good about pulling the near nudes from Undressed but they don't have his.
