Dominique Dunne, the actress and delightful human being .

Dominique would have been a ⭐️ no question. I hate her killer.

A free spirit

Odd how in Poltergeist 2 they don't even mention her. Would have been so easy to say she was off in college.

Her character was sort of out of place in the original. She was always just going to stay at a friend's house and don't know why they make a point to say the mother is 32 and the daughter is 16.

They were supposed to be just a typical American family. Why make her a teenage mother?

R3, the powers that be on Poltergeist 1and two were heartless. But the cast and crew of Poltergeist loved Dominique and even Spielberg praised her acting talent . He said she had “ natural ability.”

Wait. Who wrote about the OJ Trial for Vanity Fair???

Dominick Dunne , her dad .

R3- This was mentioned in another Dominique Dunn thread- She was NOT needed in the movie. The two young children were all that were needed and the mother especially was TOO young to have a 16 year old daughter. It's just like in the movie Back To The Future - Wendi Jo Sperber and Marc McClure were TOTALLY out of place in that movie. TOO OLD to be the children of such young parents and didn't serve ANY purpose in the movie. I know the directors or producers were the same people who did I Wanna Hold Your Hand in 1978 and both actors starred in that movie.

Oh great. A Dominique Dunne troll. You already started another thread. Why not use that one?

She made Poltergeist better in my opinion. She deserves her own troll.

Made thread to celebrate her life and roles .

She does have one of the original film's most memorable moments with the "what's happening!!" screams. (although that scene was sort of annoying in that you want her to just get in the car and stop yelling.)

True r11 . She didn’t direct lol

She really was a great actor . She was beloved by everyone she knew . Sad 😞

Bump . Anyone know her or work with her?

Dominique worked with the great lady Janis Paige , Dody Goodman and Peter Brady at his hottest . It’s high camp TV movie .

Quintana Roo, especially as an only child, was very close to her cousin. Supposedly, John and Joan went to Europe with her out of fear that she might be called to testify in the trial and say things that might of hurt her cousin.

R16, what could she say that would hurt Dominique? Dominique was a innocent person with a good heart.

R17 My guess is maybe about drug use, even something like weed would have been provocative back then.

From all I know, Dominique did not do drugs, drank moderately and loved to take dance classes to stay in shape . Her evil killer however, drank and took percodans . There was bad blood between Mr. Don and his brother. Did you know that John dunne and Joan Didion dined at MA Maison AFTER Dominique’s murder? This understandably infuriated Nick Dunne. I believe that was an excuse for Roo Dunne.

Dominique was the victim. Her trial was a travesty of justice .

Dominique spoke fluent Italian. She had a great circle of friends and loved playing softball. She was essentially the god daughter of Natalie Wood.

Wolfgang Puck paid for the murderer’s defense. The guy worked for Wolfgang.

Patrick Terell the owner paid for killer’s defense . Peck left to open Spago .

I hope Sweeney gets his karma soon

From the transcript of Dominick Dunne's interview on the Larry King show in 2006:

KING: Our guest is Dominick Dunne and his always, always interesting column in "Vanity Fair." The latest one he writes about his encounter with George Clooney and the unique connection between the two, tell us about it. DUNNE: Well, you know, Larry, it was an amazing thing. I was at a party given by Barbara Walters and Don Hewitt, you know, the producer of "60 Minutes," and they were giving the party in honor of the film "Goodnight and Good Luck." And, George Clooney and David Strathairn and so forth and Frank Langella, who are all -- who played Bill Paley and Edward R. Murrow and Fred Friendly.

And there were 90 people there and I have never met George Clooney, although I lived in Beverly Hills and his aunt Rosemary Clooney I knew very well and her kids were friends with my kids growing up in Beverly Hills but I had never met George.

And, at that party it was at the Four Seasons, I was sitting, I think I was talking to Lesley Stahl and somebody came up behind me and put his hands very hard on my shoulders, so I couldn't kind of turn around. And I finally got around like this and it was George Clooney.

And so I hopped up and I said, "Oh, George, George, I'm so glad finally to meet you and congratulations on your thing and your three nominations and your this." And he was going "Yes, yes, yes" waiting for me to get through it.

And he said, "I've got something I want to tell you Dominick." He said, "You know, I've been in rooms with you over the years and it was never the right time and everything" and he said, "This isn't the right time either at this party" but he said "I saw your back here."

And he said, "I was a friend of Dominique's" and Dominique is my daughter, was my daughter who was murdered in 1982. And I said, "You were" because I had never known that. And he said, "We were in acting class together" and it was Milton Katselas' acting class.

And he said, "We were -- we were -- she was 22. I was 21. We were very close and there was a whole group of us in the class and Dominique was the first of our group to get a part in a feature film and that was in Steven Spielberg's 'Poltergeist.' And then she got some things on "Hill Street Blues." She was the first one of all of us to break out."

And he said, "We all knew she was being stalked by this man who she was deeply afraid of." And he said, he told me about how the guys in the acting class kind of took care of her and walked her home and did things.

And he told me that he was in a mall, which I assume to be it's on La Cienega, and that Sweeney, the killer, who had been her boyfriend and was stalking her and they ran and Sweeney chased them or something like that.

And he told me that he had given a deposition at the trial. I thought I knew everything about this, my daughter's case, and I never knew any of this. And he gave a deposition about Sweeney's manner of stalking her and everything. And I was -- I was...

KING: Wow! DUNNE: I was undone by this and he was so intent, I mean the staring and people that came up, you know, to speak to him and everything and they all drifted away because he was so intense on this conversation.

And I said, "George, you know" and then I said, "Can I hug you?" And he said, "Sure." And we hugged each other and then he said, he patted me like this and he said "She would have been a star Dominick" and he walked back to the party. And it was, you know, he's a -- I think this guy...

KING: Oh!

DUNNE: ...is a fantastic man, really wonderful man.

KING: The best.

The mall was the Beverly Center . Sweeney was scary creepy. I hate him. Everyone loved Dominique. Her church funeral was packed. I wish George was there that night instead of the wuss packer .

R26 He was probably filming a very special episode of Facts of Life that night.

I forgot he was Facts lol . I like the part where the guys in her acting class would look out for her. I wish Dominique moved out of that house. Ma Maison was down the street:(

It’s been a while since I read about this case. I get why Packer maybe didn’t want to confront Sweeney. But wiki says he tried to call the police, was told it was not in their jurisdiction, then called a friend and left? Wtf? Why didn’t he call 911 or another police jurisdiction?

Old joke:

Question: How many very special episodes did “Facts of Life” film?

Answer: It’s a trick question, they were ALL very special episodes!

911 was not in place yet sadly . Packer called a friend and left message on Answering machine saying “ if I die tonight, it’s from John Sweeney .”

Dominique was so pretty . She had the best hair . I loved her laugh too

It’s strange to think she could have shown up so bruised to a shoot and no one did anything, but it was a different time.

People failed Dominique

R34 The magazine? What about Us?

I met her father at a party once and he was a total mensch. Loved him. And this was years before I knew he was gay.

Dominique was surrounded by gay and bi men all her life. I think that made trusting men easier . She pings to me.

Check this out : Sweeney beat a gay guy up because he thought he was flirting with him. I always wondered if his wife beater types these possessive stockers are repressed gay

R32- You are SO GAY.

I know Griffin did the Joan D. documentary a few years ago, but I feel like I recently watched one about his family as well. Or was it what he covered in that one, home movies on the beach, playing on the lawn of mansions? Is there a Dunne family documentary?

Griffin should do one on Dominique. He rarely talks about her .

Bump

Dominique would have given us great performances . She was that good !

Surprised that she and Clooney were in Milton Katselas' acting class. That was a well known Scientology recruiting class.

I just read that . I’m glad she and George were not suckered in .

Dominique would be 61 had she lived. He took all that life from her.

I always felt bad for the actor she was rehearsing with the night she was killed. The boyfriend showed up and she went outside to talk to him. The guy heard a scuffle or something and called the police.

Some of the E true Hollywood Story type shows made it sound like he was a coward for not rushing out to save her. I don't know if it was right to accuse the guy of not putting himself in the middle of a lover's spat.

R47, Packer was indeed a coward and he knew Sweeney was stalking Dominique. He wussed out and rumor has it George Clooney and other friends blackballed him .

What was he supposed to do? Risk his life for some girl from an acting class? Did he hear screams or just an argument? Do you know the details?

They were co stars on miniserie V and packer was over to rehearse a scene together. The sounds that packer heard were frightening. He could hear Dominique being strangled. He could have picked up large knife in kitchen, or baseball bat etc. he wimped out and it destroyed his career . He was a good looking guy

Holy shit! did Dom. Dunne ever go deeper into it? I remember vague references in his novels and work for VF, but can't recall if he ever went deep into Dominique's murder.

Four days after the attack, doctors took Dominique Dunne off life support, on November 4. When Dominick wrote about those four days leading up to his daughter’s actual death, he thanked the “relay teams of friends” who took telephone calls, arranged for food and coffee, and managed every other detail of the Dunne family’s life. What he did not write about in that Vanity Fair article was the behavior of his brother and sister-in-law, which, by the end of John Sweeney’s murder trial and the ensuing ordeal, would ignite a major feud that ended only months before John Gregory Dunne’s death in 2003.

People often asked Dominick about his famous sister-in-law. “You want to know what Joan is really like?” he would say and then tell the following story.

The day after John Sweeney’s attack on Dominique, John and Joan arrived at Lenny Dunne’s house to offer their support before Dominique was taken off life support. Due to her critical condition, the family decided early on to use one phone line in the house to make calls and to keep the other line open in case the doctor or police called.

Shortly after asking if there was anything she could do, Joan Didion retired to the master bedroom to place a call on the outgoing line. She closed the door. Later, needing to use the telephone, Dominick walked into his ex-wife’s bedroom. There, he found his sister-in-law on the bed, the phone clutched between her neck and shoulder, a pen in hand. Galleys of her next book, "Salvador," littered the bed spread. She was on the phone with her editor in New York.

Joan looked up at Dominick. “Yes?” she asked.

“We got reports that Joan and John were going to Ma Maison,” said Alex Dunne. “In Los Angeles at that time, there were two restaurants that were the power places to be seen. One was Chasen’s. The other was Ma Maison. And we got reports that Joan and John continued to dine at Ma Maison. Being seen there was what they cared about.” What made their appearance even more galling was that many people in the entertainment business boycotted Ma Maison to show their support of the Dunne family. In fact, the restaurant’s reputation never fully recovered.

John and Joan were remarkably nasty people. I'm an only child so I don't don't have much insight into sibling rivalry. I've never heard of on this intense.

I confused her for Dominique Swain.

Her murderer wound up working as a chef at a retirement community for well off seniors. In the last Dominique Dunne thread one of the posters actually called the place and asked if they were aware they were employing a convicted killer. I can't remember the response.

John Dunne was jealous of Dominick. He and his equally pretentious wife betrayed Dominique in my opinion. Dominique was an endearing person and worked for John and Joan as their secretary one summer. She also was a good role model for her little cousin Quintana . Quintana was a heavy drinker and died at age 39. Dominique was very kind to Roo

Dominique was such a visual actor. She would have been top star in the silent era . Her eyes were so expressive and soulful. A very pretty girl too

Check this out . Tons of campy moments 70’s style . This was Dominique’s first role.

Dominique definitely pings in this movie . Christopher knight is mega sexy in this .

R60 Did all the Brady kid actors do teenage runaway hooker roles?

R59- Just because it's an OLD, CRAPPY movie does not mean it's CAMPY.

It’s eye candy for sure. You also see how patriarchal the men are to the teen girls. Yikes

R63 That has changed?

It’s a lot better now

She was so cute .

Nothing against Dominque, but I found Rebecca Schaeffer much more attractive, talented and the situation more heartbreaking because it was a complete stranger stalking her, not a disgruntled ex boyfriend with domestic violence issues.

No way was Rebecca prettier than Miss Dunne

Sweeney is a psychopath. His favorite thing was to come up from behind and he grab Dominic by the hair so forcefully the yang some hair from the roots and then knocked her down to the ground. His previous girlfriend said that he would throw rocks at her when she tried to leave the house. You should read the letter that Dominique intended to write a Sweeney that was right in court it was so scary

I am assuming this was written after she kicked him out of the house for choking her the first time, in front of friends that were spending the night. She even had the locks changed. He gaslit her made her question herself. This letter was read by female court clerk. Dominique did not send it to Sweeney.

And yet some Dataloungers revel in calling females "whores." A whore could never be taken seriously, as opposed to chiding others via appropriate networks...

Some dataloungers call all kinds of dehumanizing names. It’s the DL . But lots of smart, insightful people too, with periods of serious compassion .

Sweeney hates women period . His girlfriend before Dominique was a secretary. But both she and Dominique come from privilege . Sweeney is just a jealous, brooding demon.

[quote]Nothing against Dominque, but I found Rebecca Schaeffer much more attractive,

Yes, me too.

[quote]Packer was indeed a coward and he knew Sweeney was stalking Dominique. He wussed out and rumor has it George Clooney and other friends blackballed him .

They were successful, Packer is practically a ghost, I couldn’t find any information about him.

R75. 🙌😂

Dominique believed in the supernatural. Her dad shared stories of encounters of ghost of his mother. While Dominique was filming poltergeist, strange things started to happen in her apartment. She moved out fast after meeting Sweeney.

Dominique was luminous

Dominique and her mother, Lenny, who shows up several times in Roddy McDowall's home movies.

Her poor mom . Loses her daughter and battled MS 😞

Dominique was prolly delicious, too. Too bad her stalker wasn't also a cannibal and ate all the evidence. Everyone loves a successful stalker.

r81 = absolute trash.

Whoever started this thread is absolute fucking trash. No one gives no fucks for Dom Dunne. She Done. Beyotch.

R83, is a stupid troll .

R84 is prolly the retarded troll who starts a million horrible threads/polls every day. No one cunts more than you, sweetie.

Blocked the dumb troll. Poor angry soul

R80 Not to mention having a Gay husband.

Very true . He cheated on her with orgies etc . That’s humiliating. Plus , her two best friends died before Dominique. Norma Crane from Fiddler on roof and of course the great Natalie Wood. Dominique adored Natalie and she her. Both Natalie and Norma are buried at Pierce Brothers in Westwood .I’m assuming that’s why her mom picked that cemetery for daughter

Dominique pinged at least bi to me. She had better chemistry with her female co stars than male . She went to a a boarding school in Colorado where 80% of the student body were guys and she didn’t date at all in high school. Guys would ask her out and she would decline .

Sweeney was her first boyfriend at age 21

Sweeney is a female abuser . He detests women , especially women from privileged backgrounds.

Bump

R89 That's your evidence for being bi, stupid cunt.

Dominique loved animals and adopted several , especially hard to adopt pets . She was so kind and loving

Yes, if she wasn't attracted to psychopaths she'd have been President. Good grief.

Well bitches, because none of you were answering my question, I went back and watched Joan Didion: The Center Will Not Hold and Griffen uses some 1960s home movies of him, his brother, Dominique and their mother by the pool and at the beach, all looking Hollywood glamorous. He tells the story of the first time meeting Joan and one of his testicles slipping out of his bathing suit, and how everyone else laughed, but not Joan. But I swear I’ve seen more home movies of the kids, was there are Dunne brother documentary or was it maybe in the Natalie Wood documentary?

Those beach videos were idyllic

Dominique was very bright, sensitive and fun loving . She was a delight .

Packer was cute. I think he only made one mistake. It was smart that he immediately called police. But he should have skipped the call to a friend to say it was Sweeney and just immediately gone out there to help.

Domestic arguments are a tough call as to whether or not to get involved. Sometimes the beaten woman sides with the abuser.

I had neighbors like that. Sometimes I'd hear her scream "no don't." or stuff.

I'd just go in the house and let them fight it out.

So Packer called a friend while he was at the house?

Yes, r100. Packer left message on friend’s AM “ if I die tonight it was by John Sweeney.”

I can see we he didn't go out in that case. Sweeney could have had a gun or a knife. Look at what happened to Ron Goldman.

Why'd Dominque go out? What did she tell Packer she was going to do when she was out there?

I can't seem to find this story on youtube. I remember seeing it dramatized on some show.

Sweeney did not have Gun or knife. Was Sweeney had with his massive hands as he forcefully grabbed Dominique by the throat dragged her across to the next door lawn. Dominic went outside to talk with Sweeney because wimp Packer said “ maybe I should go?” That prompted scared Dominique to say “ don’t go, stay inside I’ll go talk to him on porch” . Within about 30 seconds Dominique and Sweeney started arguing because Sweeney was jealous . She tried to get back into the house ,and he grabbed her from behind by the throat and it was with such force it damaged her vocal cords. Packer was a wuss

So she was killed instantly? Had he been stalking her? Did she date him long?

Is she buried in the same cemetary as Heather O'Rourke? The one off Wilshire in Westwood where Marilyn and other are. That is quite an interesting visit. Every grave is someone famous practically.

This is a fascinating thread OP. I appreciate you taking the time to write such well written accounts. I"m glad I read this.

R104, it took over 5 minutes for Sweeney to strangle Dominique to brain death . They had dated and lived together for several months she kicked him out six weeks before she was killed after he tried to strangle her in front of her friends. She change the locks and avoided that house for three weeks. Sweeney was absolutely stalking her . He would show up at her acting school, her moms house call all her friends show up on the set he worked and lived down the street from her house.she was traumatized and terrified of him.

Yikes. Why on earth did she go out to talk to him then? She should have called the police and stayed inside. (or just stayed inside.)

I think she felt safe with packer there . Fatal mistake.

How long did Sweeney spend in jail?

I think even if Packer had intervened and stopped him that night, I think the sad reality is Sweeny probably would have succeeded in killing her another time. He was obsessed with her. I mean, she was only running lines with Packer that night. Can you imagine if Dominique had actually started dating someone else?

Why are you all saying the colleague was a coward? We don’t know what happened, we don’t even know what was in his line of vision. Unless it was a fantastic hag, I surely wouldn’t go out there to intervene with anything but 911 unless I was positive it was a potential killing. Then I might grab a butcher knife to stab him if I knew I could run away. I mean if it’s a bestie then maybe ur gonna be out there all of you gettin thrown around like rag dolls, but a new buddy? Fuck- who can say?

[quote] She pings to me.

No, she doesn't.

OK, but what of Dominique Devereaux?

R105, Yes, at Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park. Heather is interred just below and to the right of Truman Capote.

David Packer was hot. Is he gay?

Madonna gave an interview when she starred with Griffin Dunne in Who’s That Girl. She said he shared his devastation about his sister’s death but refused to go into details.

Dominique would have been great in V.

Dominique had great chemistry with her female co stars .

That’s ridiculous. Packer was NOT a wuss.

Uh, yea he was .

But was Packer packing?

I did get big dick energy from him. I’m on the fence on sexuality. I’m not saying packer was a bad guy and I do believe he felt really bad about it, but he wimped out.

What about Dominique-a-neek?

You can ping without being stereotypical. It’s based on eye contact and just a six sense . Dominique and Charlene Tilton had 🔥 chemistry.

I stumbled onto that cemetery once while early for a movie in Westwood that r115 mentions

It was sort of amazing to see all the famous names their.

The odd thing was at Marilyn Monroe's crypt people had stuck pencils and paper in the cracks like if she would rise from the dead and write them a note.

Was Packer gay? I think yes.

R116 of course he was gay, fucktard. 100% of all men are gay.

I hope not cuz he’s a wimp ass !!

I’m Glad Dominique is buried there r124. They are meticulous about keeping grounds immaculate and she is surrounded by her industry folk and her mom’s bff , Natalie Wood and Norma Crane . Another murder victim and great gal, Dorothy Stratton is buried near her.

Watched Poltergeist yesterday. Sorry OP, she's even more limited than I remembered.

R129, watch her in “ Day loving stopped” or her fame episode. She’s talented. I think she’s a very pretty girl

They didn’t really know what to do with her character on poltergeist. But her performance was noticeable

So the lezzies on here all want to claim her, while the gay men think she didn't have the it factor it takes to be a gay icon.

I get more bi vibes from her. She wasn’t boy crazy that’s for sure .

R132, Dominique was surrounded by gay men all her life . She felt safe with them .

She was a whore.

Nope 👎 r135, you are and your tricks are old fatties

So nobody knows if David Packer was gay? He was so sexy in V. He wasn’t a wimp- Sweeney would have killed him. IF he knew she was being strangled he should have done something.

Jobeth Williams was so good in Poltergeist. I always wondered why Dom’s character just disappeared at one point. Were those bruises on her neck in the movie in her famous “what’s happening” scene or fake hickies?

Fake Hicks, r137, and in fact, Dominique was concerned that it was “ tacky” and exploitive . Jo Beth loved Dominique and strongly condemned Packer . Packer should have helped her. I bet he is ashamed.

David was young. I feel sorry for him. He shouldn’t have been punished.

But he was justifiably ostracized in Hollywood. Ha ha ha

He shouldn’t have been ostracized.

I’m glad he was !ha ha ha

You should be ostracized, r142. And soon.

R143, is Packer or psychotic CUNT

These people judging Packer, are they for real? I am sure we all would have been put in a precarious situation that night if we had been there, and who knows what we would have done?

The thing is, when you read stories about Dominique, it was clear EVERYBODY around her knew Sweeney was a nutcase and capable of murder. So, judging Packer is not fair since they all knew it too. I'm not blaming Dominique but she went out to talk to him - yes, reluctantly - but what was Packer supposed to do? She was a grown woman.

The one thing I find bizarre about Packer's story is that he called the police and, according to him, they said it wasn't their jurisdiction??? Here in Canada, you call 9-1-1 and the operator will dispatch you through to the police. Is it not the same there? And wouldn't the police who responded get in touch with the correct jurisdiction? Apparently, Packer then called a friend. That's a bit odd to me. Since... wouldn't he get in touch with the correct police jurisdiction?

The people condemning Packer are all homophobic! Everyone loves to blame the gay guy! Everyone, even the out gays, has some internalized hate for gay men!

No proof that Packer’s gay .

Really, there are very few coworkers I would ever potentially die for and that’s after years of knowing them inside and outside of work. This was basically a new work relationship that was perhaps months at best.

You’re missing the point . David could have helped her . He was a coward

R149 knows he is a short-dicked coward who would've done the same as Packer and hates himself.

Packard DID help her! He went outside and found her.

No one else is to blame but Dunne herself, you stupid cunts. She was the one who attracted these kinds of psychotic fucks into her life. She put everyone else in danger. Not a good idea to be friends with those who attract psychotic murderers.

She should have never gone outside. David called the police. They couldn’t help. He knew that guy was nuts but I doubt he knew she was being strangled to death.

The sounds of strangulation are loud

Love this pic with her and Charlene

Jobeth should have had a bigger career. She was hot there for awhile then it petered out.

Jobeth was an average actor who got the exact career she deserved.

Jobeth invested well and lives in Bel Air with her hubs. She was or still is on SAG board

R157 She was very good and very pleasing to the eye. She just had a nice look.

She’s a three time Emmy award nominee for some big projects. And I don’t mean her 4 years stint as a whore nurse on Guiding Light.

R159 Not at all. The 80s were filled with average actresses like her with no talent.

R161 She had a lot of talent. We like her.

Anyone know or work with Dominique?

R162 LOL. You and all your 50 personalities. Everyone of them cuntier than the last.

Can a poltergeist please come and take care of this cunt at r161?

Who can hate on Jobeth Williams? CHEEZUS.

Sean Cassidy was dear friends with Dominique.

Christopher Knight worked with her on two TV movies and said she was great to work with and her death was “ such a tragedy.”

Jobeth Williams is an Ivy League graduate of Brown!

R167 Did he meet her on a Monday?

She's not as cute as all the lesbians on here claim.

They grew up together in Beverly Hills.

This could be gay camp movie . So bad, but delightful for watching. A great anxiety killer. Janis Paige is sublime.

Gary Cooper’s daughter was her godmother and Martin Manulis is her Godfather.

Why are crazed lesbians still trying to overcome and overtake? The shit John Sweeney did enough to eradicate her. Stop!

Dominique was / is a special soul . Who’s trying to hurt her among gay women?

I’m convinced that Sweeney is borderline.

Inspired by this thread I was Googling Sweeney and I came across a story/thread and some people were saying Sweeney was dead! Which I knew not to be true.

I wonder if he planted it there to make people think he was dead so they would stop harassing him.

IIRC from a previous thread, he changed his name to John Maura and was living in the Pacific Northwest.

He’s now in northern cal feeding the rich folks.

R173, flames & freaks for using sublime!!!

We have a psychotic loser pushing super fug Rocco Ritche. Now another psychopath pushing a nothing "actress" deservedly murdered by her stalker. DL is so finished.

R182 Blocked. You’re disgusting. Hey, dress in a long brown wig, visit a NoCal fancy restaurant where a John Maura works. Hopefully, nature take her course.

ANYWAY, I agree. I think he has BPD in addition to a violent streak. Not all, or most, of BPDs are violent. Violent stalkers are those with BPD combined with being a violent person.

Poor Dominique. I despise this demon .

I wish we could find out if Sweeney is married or hooked up? I pity that woman .

Bump

Dominique and Tony Goldwyn as teens .

Tony was adorable

Dominique was very smart too

Dominique’s father wrote that Dominique can be very at ease in a sophisticated world, without being sophisticated herself .

Dominique was the daughter of Dominick and Dominatrix Dunne.

Debbie does Dominque

WTF. Wasn't this troll thread paywalled?

Interesting enough, Debbie Reynold’s daughter a girl Named Carrie was best friends with griffin Dunne and close with Dominique too.

Bump

Dominique was sublime

That they actually made a feature film about that corny nun, tho!

Bump .

I don’t think she was attractive enough to get much continued acting work, had she lived.

R199 is blind

I thought she was great on her episode of Fame. Just raw emotion.

Her episode on Family too . Her character is a teen who seduces an older man .

I repeat:

[quote]I don’t think she was attractive enough to get much continued acting work, had she lived.

Young film actresses are employed mostly for their looks. There are occasional sidekick roles for the quirky friend or the bookworm… but even those girls are most often physically desirable underneath it all (like Brittany Murphy.)

Her family connections obviously helped, and would continue to do so, but it’s not like this chick was automatically headed for stardom.

She’s adorable in that pic r203, plus she was very talented. The camera loved her .

[quote]r204 The camera loved her.

???

Yes r205

Here’s Dominique with Janis Paige and Peter Brady at his sexiest.

The abuse began long before her death. She was denied a tweezer to thin her eyebrows.

R172 You are correct. He was in Seattle in the 90s. Around the same time the True Hollywood Story of her life was airing. He worked for Restaurants Unlimited and they’re scum for hiring and sustaining a murderer because he had a Wolfgang Puck kitchen pedigree.

R208, a waxing would have been stunning on her . Her eyes were so expressive and alluring

She and Sean Cassidy were close friends since childhood.

She'd have had a long career as a character.

She could like a plain girl next door but also absolutely stunning once made up like this still from FAME:

I prefer Dominique with flat iron straight hair. She had such great hair. Dominique could act!! She was passionate.

Is this the Candace Cameron Bure troll who kept infecting View threads with awkward, autistic-like praise of Candace?

Wrong thread r214

Did the boyfriend/killer have a huge dick or something? Why did this dingbat chick keep moving back in with him when he was beating her up?

What was the ex-boyfriend's defense? Did he say he was just trying to assault her but didn't want to actually kill her? Or did he try to claim insanity?

Maybe it was one of those rough sex, Preppie Killer situations…

R216, Dominique went back once after the first attack . She kicked Sweeney out and changed the locks 4 weeks later . She was with him less than a year with lots of seperation due to her on location gigs . Sweeney was an insecure, raging beast who beat the crap out of a gay man because he thought he was flirting with him.

Sweeney was Dominique’s first boyfriend. She was 22 when she met him. She was very vulnerable

Dominique was not shallow, because Sweeney was fugly . Looked like a cave man .

[quote]R220 Sweeney was Dominique’s first boyfriend. She was 22 when she met him.

She didn’t have a boyfriend until she was in her TWENTIES??

I guess I’m not the only one who found her plain.

R222, guys loved Dominique at her boarding school and she was decline dates . I think Dominique was not that into guys personally. She may have felt the pressure to get a boyfriend.

R222 is a bitter, hateful asshole . Can’t imagine how fat and ugly this QUEEN is

[quote]R223 guys loved Dominique at her boarding school and she was decline dates .

What? She was approaching her “decline date”?

Now [italic]you’re [/italic]being cruel.

Would decline.

Life is so unfair

Bump

She was a bit fug faced.

Not at all r234. She was adorable

Eh….

Here she is with her good friend Charlene Tilton

She’s basically a plain jane. Sorry.

She’s luminous and pretty

Only to you and her family.

Many people found Dominique attractive and cute. You’re just a jealous queen

Wow, the OP of this thread is batshit crazy. Good thing Dunne is dead or I would be worried OP would be stalking her.

Dominique loved working with Spielberg . Spoke very highly of him.

Her father will always be a hero to me, just for the one night he spoke to me at a Playboy party in NYC, and I am a nobody and there were lots of somebodies there. I didn't even know he was gay then, but we had "convo energy", and that was enough. I wasn't even thinking of him sexually.

Her birthday today ! ❤️

Bump

I’ll bet she was a real seeetheart, and put up with all kinds of shit from this creepy loser because of her kindness.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Sweetheart, not seeetheart lol

R248, Dominique was an empath

He tormented her during and especially after the relationship ended .

Terrifying way to die
