Like a contemporary Dorothy, Romancing the Stone's Joan Wilder must travel to Columbia and survive incredible adventures to learn that she had always been a capable and valuable person. Romancing the Stone (Robert Zemeckis, 1984) is part of a series of 1980s action comedies that disrupted previous expectations for female heroines. These female protagonists manage to subvert the standard action narrative and filmic gaze, learning to rescue themselves and to resist others' limited vision of them. Not only did these action comedies present strong female characters, they also offered a new filmic experience for female audiences. The commercial success of comic action heroines paved the way for women to appear in serious action roles--without the personal sacrifices required of Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley. Figures like Joan Wilder serve as an important link between previous strong yet feminine screen personas and current female stars.
Toni Collette seems to be that rare creature – a born actress. At the age of 11, she faked appendicitis so convincingly that doctors performed surgery on her, even though medical tests all showed there was nothing wrong. She has a face which effortlessly transmits emotion to an audience, and the instinctive ability to inhabit a character so completely that few people actually know what Toni looks like in real life. Much prettier than on camera, is the general verdict. Born and raised in working class Blacktown, Sydney, she dropped out of the National Institute of the Dramatic Arts to work in film and theatre.

Normally, you’d think both Fassbender and Winslet would steel the show – and to an extend Michael Fassbender does rule the roost, so to speak. However, Seth Rogen and Jeff Daniels chime in with precision and amble execution. Clearly Daniels is still in The Newsroom form, and sounds as if he walked straight onto the Jobs set from the now defunct HBO series – though he’s effective in his efforts, nonetheless. Equally as potent is Rogen, who takes a break of his typical comical shenanigans – and excels, supremely, especially in a blow-for-blow final showdown late in the film with
