![]() ![]() Is it the disingenuous friend? The unsuspecting sister? The co-worker with a nefarious plan? The roles are just "parts" to an actor. I've enjoyed a few movies she and some of the other cast have been in for Lifetime, and part of that enjoyment is seeing what type of character they'll be playing this time around. If they were recasting Dallas, she'd fit right in. Not only is she hot, but she brings a spark to the screen. While the user above pointed out Sophie's performance I have to say I completely disagree. I think part of the reason why The Perfect Assistant was so enjoyable is that it features a collective of actors who work pretty consistently in these movies, and much like a basketball team that has played together for a long time, they have a fun time with what they are doing. There is a format that these movies follow and it must be challenging to consistently find ways to keep them fresh-and more importantly, with this channel, entertaining. Having watched more than my share of Lifetime movies, I am constantly surprised at the creative ways the filmmakers switch things up. All in all, thanks to Davis, Potter and Hunter it wasn't that bad. Both were not actresses but a freak of nature. Weak spots were Sophie Gendron, with her Novocaine lips and Deborah Pollitt as the plain Jane weird sister. Rachel Hunter brought a likable maturity to the fold. Unlike Perry King who always seems to succumb to his evil ladies. Natural in his acting and believable with a difficult role. I also liked Chris Potter from QUEER AS FOLK fame. I thought monitors were for keeping tabs on patients, yet no one came to the rescue when the lady's monitor went crazy. Although I do challenge in what hospital a stranger can walk in at night without a nurse questioning her and then do her evil. ![]() I loved it when she didn't get what she wanted. Cold steel blue eyes and manner, she traipsed through the film undaunted. She is shown to be in jail.Although the leading lady played by Josie Davis was a bit over the wall, she still brought that evil doings expected in these "perfect" films on LMN. The film ends with Rachel writing a letter to David that says she looks forward to seeing him. Rachel unloads her anger onto them and shoots Judith. Rachel shows up, threatens David with a gun and takes everyone hostage. When he throws a dinner party for the employees who secured a deal with a major company. She shows up at David's house, who tells her he doesn't love her. Rachel thinks he only fired her so he can date her without being an employee. Judith and co-worker Wally tell their suspicions of Rachel to David, who later fires her. Nora confronts her, but Rachel kills her by pushing her down the stairs. Nora's computer crashes so she uses Rachel's, who returns from New York and is angry to discover this. Rachel asks her cousin Nora, to watch her house while she is in New York. Then Rachel gives a stomach bug to David's business partner, Judith (Rachel Hunter), allowing her to go to New York with David. His wife soon dies, due to an injection Rachel gives her. She finds out he has a wife who is dying and a daughter. She is a nice girl, but starts to obsess over her boss David Wescott (Chris Potter).
