I watched ‘The Long Kiss Goodnight’ (1996) yesterday, because the odd pairing between Geena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson caught my interest, and I’m blown away by how well they blend!

It all goes back to a post I made on here years ago, where I was asking users on Reddit what actors had the best chemistry in a movie, and Geena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson in that movie were one of the many actors that were listed. That answer caught me off guard, cause those were two actors that I'm familiar with, but never in a million years would've guessed that they starred in a movie together but also shared a lot of scenes with each other!

When I finally watched it, I was certainly impressed with their on-screen chemistry that I needed to see more of it and was disappointed when I discovered that this is the only movie they've worked on together!

The movie itself was also pretty great, and had amazing action sequences that I find it odd how Geena's character isn't mentioned a lot when the media lists 'badass female protagonists done right!' But Geena and Samuel being such great scene partners is what made this movie stand out to me the most!
