Talk:Catherine Tramell

Lead image
This really should be replaced with a full body shot of the famous no-underwear interrogation scene, because that was the source of a lot of controversy.  howcheng  {chat} 19:15, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

DNA
The article should mention DNA, which has been used in criminal investigations since the mid-1980s. (JeremeyMurphy (talk) 12:25, 8 January 2012 (UTC))
 * Why? Mo ainm  ~Talk  13:05, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Because in reality the police would have gone to court to get a sample of Tramell's DNA, since she was the last person seen with Johnny Boz before he was murdered. If she had refused to provide a sample then she would have been charged with obstruction of justice. The scriptwriter has admitted that not mentioning DNA in the movie was a major plothole.

 * This is not reality, this is your own interpretation, have you a source from the scriptwriter? Mo ainm  ~Talk  15:56, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

He mentioned it in his book "Hollywood Animal". (JeremeyMurphy (talk) 16:13, 8 January 2012 (UTC))
 * ISBN and page number please. Mo ainm  ~Talk  16:14, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Different name as author?
During a love scene in Basic Instinct 2, he looks at her book, which is opened upside down. Front cover has the book name "One Lie, One Clue", author's first name "Catherine" and one letter visible from the last name, "W". Back cover has Catherine Tramell's (Sharon Stone) picture. Does someone have it at better quality, when it could be possible to see everything written on the cover? 85.217.42.205 (talk) 07:40, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Not amused
This article is frequently unencyclopaedic, redundant, badly written and simply wrong.

Especially, what's the point of summarizing both films again as they already have their own article.

Or why list murder victims not even offed by Catherine? Maikel (talk) 17:36, 6 May 2021 (UTC)


 * I agree that that section is better removed. Debresser (talk) 16:40, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I've redirected the article to Basic Instinct for now.—indopug (talk) 07:40, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
