watchmen7We’re coming down to the wire with the Watchmen video journal series, and today’s installment is all about the ladies of Watchmen, most notably the Silk Specters, both mother and daughter.

The really interesting part about the whole thing is Carla Gugino, who plays Sally Jupiter, is about the same age as Malin Ackerman, who plays Laurie Juspeczyk, Sally Jupiter’s daughter.  It takes more than a little solid acting, that Carla sure looks like she’s providing, and some solid makeup work, which also looks to be in evidence.

For those of you who are wondering why mother and daughter don’t share a last name, let me spare you the trip to Wikipedia that I already took–turns out that, back in Sally’s day, Polish names weren’t looked on with favor, so she changed it just slightly to spare herself a lot of trouble.  Mother and daughter have plenty of issues that you’ll see throughout the film, and that lends an extra note of humanity to a film so deeply involved with superheroism.  This is, as far as I’m concerned, a very upbeat note that gives a film already looked forward to that extra something that makes waiting for March very, very difficult.
