Members SFK Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 Yeah, she and A Martinez were Meryl's "servants". Helga was Ute, the one who muttered, "Sh!t... Sh!t... Sh!t..." having to clean up after the kids' dog. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pine Charles Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 Haha! I love that movie. For some reason, I never connected the maid with Helga. Odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 Helga always seems much more low-key than I was expecting. I think I had conjured up a vision of Frau Blucher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 Helga was at her craziest in Budapest when she kidnapped Erica and locked her in a crypt and left her there to die when a big heavy something or other fell on top of Erica. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 When I first started reading about AMC I got 91-93 so confused. For some time I thought Helga and Kendall worked together and locked Bianca in a crypt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 "Would somebody get the GOD-DAMNED DOOR??" That's one of my favorite parts, I've been wanting to make a gif of that! I saw this movie in the theatre with my grammie way back in '89. That sigh at 1:53 always cracks me up. I love her comedy in this movie and in Death Becomes Her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Marco Dane Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 does anyone have the clip when Maria died in the plane crash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted February 2, 2012 Members Share Posted February 2, 2012 Nope, Helga locked Erica in a crypt in 1992. Kendall tricked Bianca into hiding in the masoeleum at Wildwind in 1993, and then in either 1994 or 1995 Kendall worked with Corvina (Anton's mother and another household servant) to try to scam Dimitri into believing that Corvina was really the Marick heir. Corvina was the one who could barely speak English. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted February 3, 2012 Members Share Posted February 3, 2012 I wonder if this exhausted viewers at the time... I haven't seen enough of Helga to say but I wish she or Corvina had a bit more "pop." I don't think Erica had a strong enough adversary in these years. I guess the closest would be Maria starting around 1995, but she wasn't supposed to be an adversary, and I thought she was a sanctimonious hypocrite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted February 3, 2012 Members Share Posted February 3, 2012 This is cute, I look forward to this. I just watched the Eileen Fulton one, she is such a trip. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted February 3, 2012 Members Share Posted February 3, 2012 Kendall was pretty much Erica's main adversary from mid-1993 until she left town. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 3, 2012 Members Share Posted February 3, 2012 True, but starting somewhere in 1994 they seemed isolated from each other in scenes and Corvina had more of an adversarial role, which doesn't work that well in the scenes I've watched. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
