 From what I can gather, this movie is about a man called Ray who is so blue with cold that he’s turned into ice. Or something like that. The reality is not much less preposterous frankly.
Back the early 1990s, rapper Vanilla Ice (a ridiculously weak pseudonym for someone trying to project toughness) became a major celebrity. It was a simpler time. His hit song ‘Ice Ice Baby’, continues to haunt the airwaves to this day. As is the way for the entertainment industry, it couldn’t let a potential cash-cow like this go un-milked so it made a movie especially for it. Fortunately, such aberrations seem to be rarer these days. They just get reality TV series on obscure channels instead.
For those unaware of this little slice of Kathryn’s early career, Cool As Ice was her second credited role. She’s only in a couple of brief scenes as a friend of the female lead (Kristin Minter, ER). It’s hardly Kathryn’s big break, a couple of blink-and-you’ll-almost-miss-her moments, but every actor has to start somewhere.
The plot is standard boy-meets-girl type stuff. She’s the good girl. He’s the bad boy who rolls into town. Swoon.
Last week a new Blu-ray version of Cool As Ice was released in the US by publisher Kino Lorber. I believe that is a new 1080p (full HD) transfer so should be better than any previous version. The disc also includes an audio commentary by two film experts and some trailers. There doesn’t appear to be any versions of the disc for other parts of the world, so be aware if you were to import it to your part of the globe it may not play on your equipment. I don’t have details of the region coding.
Cool As Ice on Blu-ray and other formats can be found on the US Amazon site HERE.
Amazingly, this film has gone largely unmentioned here on KM UK, though there have been some decent sized screencaps in the Gallery since this site’s inception.
 Hasn’t the image above just made your day a little bit better? Whether it was good or bad before, it’s improved now. One of the (very many) things we love above about Kathryn, even when play Lilly Rush, who has her reasons not to, is that she. Gives. Good. Smiles.
At this point in these posts I usually make reference to the story (the shooting of an ER doctor with a gambling problem) in the episode and the fact it first aired 15 years ago today. Not doing that just yet. No sir-ee. Just basking in the smile for a while longer…. a bit more….
So, where was I? Oh yes, ‘The River’ was about the shooting of ER doctor with a gambling problem and the episode first aired 15 years ago today. Did I? Oh well.
Just added further enhancement to your Friday (or whatever day you see this on) we have 2 new high resolution promo photos (see 1 of them below right) to join our brand new 160 (Full HD, 1080p) screencaps in the Gallery.
  
 The Philly cop squad look into one of their oldest cases in ‘The Hen House’. This was episode 21 of the third season of Cold Case and was first broadcast today, the 30th of April, 15 years ago (2006).
The case involved the death of a female journalist in 1945, just after the end of World War 2. Did Lorena Kinney find out something that was worth killing her to keep secret. Will Lilly and the team finally bring the truth into the open. You know they will. We’ve yet to see an episode where the police just shrug and say ‘oh well, looks like this one is too difficult.’
The headline news here is nearly 170 (Full HD, 1080p) brand new screencaps in KM UK the Gallery.
  
 Lilly’s hot. Damn hot! And the Philly PD air-conditioning system’s inability to copy with the Pennsylvania heat is making her too warm as well :-p
Breaking with recent tradition, this series of new screencap posts from episodes first aired 15 years ago is going to include new screencaps. They’re hot too. Freshly made, especially for you.
This week’s case involves an old one of Jeffries, 10 years previous. A man is on death-row and will soon be executed for a murder he maintains he didn’t commit. He places one last call to asking for help. The squad have a literal deadline to meet on this one.
With much appeal we bring you a final set of 188 (Full HD, 1080p) new screencaps from this episode. They are now available in the Gallery.
  
 Beautiful Little Fool? Beautiful Little Fool!?! How dare you! Beautiful? Very much so. Little? She is quite petite. But, sir, I draw the line at fool! 
Early in Cold Case history it was hinted that Lilly had her issues with alcohol. Rush was, perhaps, a lush. She’d managed to stay away from it for a while before we got to know her. Few things could make her partake in the booze. Her mother is one of those exceptions. The irony, if that’s right, is that Ellen Rush has had even worse issues with drinking and has not dealt with them as well as her daughter. The much loved Meredith Baxter (Family Ties) made her first of four Cold Case appearances as Lilly’s mother in this one. Meredith herself had alcoholism earlier in life.
Alongside the Rush family dramas, the episode’s case involves one of its oldest. The 1929 death of a woman on Xmas Day of that year. ‘Beautiful Little Fool’ aired for the 1st time 15 years ago today.
Like last week, there are no new screencaps from this episode, as there are already a full suite of them in the Gallery. Instead we have two new, large, and high quality promo photos to bring to you. As you can see, they both involve the awkward meeting of Lilly and her impending new step-father.
