Great post ! Joe have you seen the 1996 French film Irma Vep, a film about a disaster plaugued remake of the original serial ? Maggie Cheung (playing herself and looking absolutely stunning) dons the title character's slinky costume. If you have yet to see it be sure to track it down, it's a fantastic film...
