Members Paul Raven Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 That's great. Poor Lorie.... Those music cues were so much a part of Y&R in those days.They wormed their way into your consciousness. Interesting that in the flasback,Jennifer was shown only from the back.Was that actually Dorothy Green or was there a double for some reason? Or was it just a directing choice to focus completely on Lorie? Looking forward to more treasures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 YES!!! your are an angel!!! thank you so much!! wow I knew JLB was always a good actress but she really killed it in those flashback scenes, she's also so pretty.....I truly loved the effect they do on the flashbacks back then....it's a shame how most TPTB are too ashamed to use that type of visual effect now.... Pamela Solow (right?) is also very good and I never realized how cute she was as Peggy she definitely has this innocent look that works very well.... So was this 1977-going into 1978 or 1976 going into 1977 (when they were talking about New Year Eve) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 4, 2014 Author Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 Thanks! I always enjoy watching JLB as Lorie because while she was a very melodramatic actress, she seemed to get the emotional beats and the heart too. She does just as well in the quieter, supporting moments with Peggy as she does in those wild voiceovers and that confrontation with Jennifer (which is riveting to watch). The scene with Jennifer is just so good. I love so many of those lines, which are so rich and histrionic and Bill Bell, like how they always said she was so different from her sisters, the "which father?", that Jennifer took her father from her, etc. I eat stuff like this up. It's absolutely pure melodramatic glory, which no one in daytime gets now. It's about emotional connection and heart along with camp, not just some generic car crash or shooting. JLB often reminds me of MTS in her acting style in this era. I can see why MTS took over for her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 It's just too bad she was often put on the backburner on DAYS. From this footage on Y&R, she could absolutely nail the material if the material she was given was any good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 It was 1977 going into 1978. The wedding between Mark and Lorie that never happened was supposed to happen on New Year's Eve 1976. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) Yes, that's why the music score was considered by so many to be a character unto itself. And that's why what Jill Phelps has done has destroyed the show more than any writing issue could. And yes, that was definitely Dorothy Green shot from the back, it was just a directing choice.

Members SoapDope Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 Thanks for the 1977 clip.JLB was excellent as always. I hope we will get to see scenes of the 1981 Gala Ball where she tries to steal Leslie's thunder by showing up in that dress slit up to her panties. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted September 4, 2014 Members Share Posted September 4, 2014 Wow! That was fantastic. Peggy is more interesting than I thought she would be. That flashback of Lorie learning the truth was amazing. JLB perfected her reaction, wish I could see the entire fallout to that story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alphanguy74 Posted September 5, 2014 Members Share Posted September 5, 2014 Continuation of the previous clip, Stuart comes to Lorie's apartment and opens up the whole can of worms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted September 5, 2014 Members Share Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) thanks again! I'm very impressed with JLB in these scenes. I love her breakdown and Stuart's line about spanking her...the end scene was also great too... funny how this is technically happening with Summer/Jack/Nick right now yet I find myself investing more into these Lorie/Stuart scenes I really know little about.....the acting is a lot better too obviously.... I'm excited to see the Vanessa stuff.....I wanna see if she is as creepy as everyone says... Edited September 5, 2014 by YRfan23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted September 5, 2014 Members Share Posted September 5, 2014 She is! She was so cold and unemotional, she even spoke to her sons like a salesperson greeting a customer in a department store. Lance gets home from a long trip, and the first word out of her mouth is "Welcome". Who the hell tells their son "welcome". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
