Slizzy Appreciation Day

Part IV

"I was working in the Hollywood Music Store the day a slinky guy dressed like Johnny Thunders came up to me. He was wearing tight black jeans, creepers, dyed black hair, and pink socks. He had a copy of my Aerosmith drawing ... This guy had been inspired enough to seek me out, especially when he heard I was a lead guitar player."

Izzy and Slash

Slizzy Appreciation Day

Part IV

Slash was drowned, he was washed up, left for dead.

Izzy was crowned with a spike right through his vein ...

But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas.

Yes it's a-a-a-a-all ri-i-ight, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas

Ooh, yeah! Sha-na-na-na-na-nah, honey!

I love and miss these guys together. I also understand time changes things and people move on. I still appreciate and enjoy all the great music they made together. Here's to my favorite guitar duo of all time - Slash and Izzy Stradlin.

Slizzy.

(Above quote from Slash's 2007 self-titled autobiography)

So I am about to start movie number four of my massive Nancy Meyers oeuvre watch. And I scrolled down IMDB and discover she fucking (co-)wrote Jumping Jack Flash (1986) under another name???

So, this is weird, and yet it makes so much sense!

If you ever were thinking, boy I want to see a Nancy Meyers movie but make it a Cold War era spy thriller (and apparently America rated it R? so have some swearing and whatever else the MPAA used to lose it’s mind about).

Also, Roger Ebert called the film “Creatively bankrupt” in his review in the 80′s.

Those of you who weren’t kids in the early-to-mid-nineties, when this movie was always on TV on Friday nights (at least in Australia) might not have seen it as many times as I have.

So let me recount this movie with the aid of the trailer that honestly doesn’t tell you jack shit:

youtube

This is Terry, played by Whoopie Goldberg. She works in an NYC bank, as a computer expert. This computer has an intranet she chats to people on and, presumably, a hackable backdoor, or whatever internet existed in 1986.

Terry works late nights at her computer, and we learn this is because she’s single. And a little sad by the fact, like many a Nancy Meyers heroine looking for love.

One night, her screen is taken over by someone typing a message.

“Who is this?” Terry asks.

“Jack,” the stranger types.

“Jack who?”

“Jack Flash,” he replies.

Jack becomes someone Terry casually chats to, but it soon becomes evident that he is in trouble. And that his name is a clue. Terry realises he wants her to listen to the Rolling Stones song, Jumpin’ Jack Flash and decode it for a secret message to help him.

Whoopie absolutely giving 110% in the following scene:

youtube

Turns out he is a British spy trapped in Russia and is in grave danger, and only Terry can help him!

What follows is a weirdly romantic but not very original cold-war era spy action thriller. It somehow has Whoopie sneaking around dodging KGB agents, and a ‘date night’ (all of Jack’s typed words are narrated by what I assume is an attractive British male voice, which is entirely in Terry’s head.)

Terry gets all dressed up for this ‘date’….to sit at her work desk after hours and type words to Jack. He doesn’t show (plot point!).

I mean yeah, this movie is kind of ridiculous. And certainly not one of Nancy Meyers’s best films. Honestly, when I watched it as a kid/teen all the generic Russian spy vs spy stuff was just noise I had a hard time following, like so many of the KGB-is-coming-to-kill you plots of the era. But! Whoopie is entertaining, and she finds love, after all the drama is over.
