She's a much better actress than she's given credit for in my opinion. Her looks have overshadowed her performances over the years. Oh, and thanks to the SNL Wayne's World skit where Wayne and Garth list the hottest women in film, every time I hear that old DiVinyls song "I Touch Myself," I sing along with Wayne's lyric instead..."I don't want anybody else, when I think about Kim Basinger I touch myself!" I laugh every single time that song plays because of this!
