POTENTIAL SPOILERS

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109635

I saw this movie on cable the other night and think it held up very well considering the backdrop was the computer/technology industry in Seattle in the early 1990s.

The movie has a little bit of a modern film noir quality to it with Demi's character as the femme fatale. There was some mystery to it and Tom Sanders (Michael Douglas) didn't know who he could trust.

In my opinion the movie is not only about sexual harassment in the workplace. There is a lot going on besides that and the harassment scene isn't introduced until about 1/4 or 1/3 into the movie.

Highly recommended rental if you haven't seen it.

Unless that book had pictures, I'll pass. This was demi moore at her peak.

I read the book and saw the movie. I thought both were okay and not much more.

I never understood why Mr. Jurassic Park put out a book about sexual harassment. I kept waiting for the DNA to turn into a monster, or the nano-technology to prove that the girl was a time traveler or something.

Crichton was pretty good even when he was mediocre, though.

Deleted scenes... When Douglas' character is in the virtual world, things go terribly, terribly wrong.
