Body?

She was yummy in that scene where she tries to "seduce" Elliott.

reply

She was yummy...period. I would have had the same pleasant reaction as the Cleveland guy as well if I were have gotten her from an escort service. She was dressed to kill.

As a young kid with cable back in the 80s I had to watch the lingerie seduction scene many times.

Just rewatched for the first time in many years. I like her in many movies, but in this her acting is like a 3 out of 10. Seeing her in that lingerie though... Wow. She's an 11 at least. ;) super sexy!

Nancy Allen looked blazing hot in black lingerie.

Yeah, she was totally hot in that black lingerie. Sweet, sweet bod.




I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

I thought she did a great job in this movie. I give her an 8/10.

reply

I thought she was a but too sweet and lovely to realistically be playing a hooker

reply

Late in my defense, but that's exactly how she was able to be a Park Avenue prostitute and charge $500-$1,000/per John. Remember she wanted to act on that hot stock tip, so she lined up that guy from Cleveland? That's a lot of money in 2023. I could only imagine how much that would equate to in 1980 terms.

But she proved her ability to 'hook,' in the Elliott seduction scene. That black lingerie! Damn! And those lines to Elliott: "I think you're full of shit," and "I'm going to powder my nose and when I get back I want to see your clothes on the floor next to mine." That was some convincing sexy talk as far as I was concerned. Nothing "sweet and lovely" about it.

Nice butt but I found her too pasty, with a pudgy face and unflattering 80’s hair. Wouldn’t say ‘no’ but not a look I go for.

reply

It makes no sense to slam her for having unflattering 80's hair when the film was shot in 1980. And it's pretty pathetic that the most you can say about 1980 Nancy Allen is that you 'wouldn't kick her out of bed.' Are we watching that same movie? Pudgy face? Pasty?

reply

I stand by everything I said.

She’s a slightly above average woman with decent tits, let down by 80’s style. She’s a 7, tops.

reply

Nancy Allen was also in the movie "BLOW OUT" with John Travolta and she was briefly seen in Lingerie in "OUT OF SIGHT" with Jennifer Lopez

reply

Wow. I'll have to rewatch Out of Sight. Nancy Allen would've been 45 when that was made. Impressive if she looked just as good in lingerie 15 years after Dressed to Kill.

reply

She was in it toward the end when they're robbing the house and she's wearing dark green lingerie
