I remember this well. 1975. I watched this movie with my parents and sister. I was 13, at the time. A drunk Ann Margaret imagines herself wallowing in soap suds, baked beans, and finally chocolate syrup. I can still remember my sister saying, "Eau, gross!" as this scene went on. But I was saying to myself, "Wow, I can't believe I'm seeing this!" And the fact that she's barefooted, while this is going on is, for me, icing on the cake! Here's the scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChGxwRq3YcI This film has two nice wetlook scenes, as well. In one of them, Tommy "baptizes" Ann in the surf, while she's wearing a dress. And in the other, a group of people jump into a swimming pool just to be close to Tommy! Amyway, this thread is for all of you to talk about this scene and perhaps post photos/screencaps of it.
A very belated reply to this post which is rather fitting as I only caught up with Tommy belatedly, on TV a good 10 years after its release. These stills are mostly from a recording I made off the TV and are a bit blurred, so apologies for that, but they do include her scooping up the beans and under the deluge. There are also some better quality (and larger) ones I found online where she's humping the pillow.
I've also created an entry for the film on the IWDB site (umd.net/iwdb) as it was oddly not there. Any database of WAM scenes in mainstream movies is sorely lacking if it doesnt include Tommy.
I love this scene and it started my love of WAM and Ann Margret. When I saw she was going barefoot too was the winner for me. I even got to meet her once and told her I loved this scene. I'll never forget that smile on her face.
I remember that too - I was 13 and watching with my granny. She was a very open minded person but was very uncomfortable, and said something like it being a fantasy too far for being on TV. I had completely forgotten the bit when she's sliding up and down the phallic cushion. Perhaps gran would have enjoyed it if she wasn't worried about her tender young grandson. I was already having fully clothed showers whenever I got the chance by then
Love you, too
